TY - JOUR PY - 2001// TI - Responding to victimized Alaska Native women in treatment for substance use JO - Substance use and misuse A1 - Segal, B. SP - 845 EP - 865 VL - 36 IS - 6-7 N2 - High rates of physical and sexual abuse have been found among Alaska Native women entering a residential treatment program in Fairbanks, Alaska. Little information, however, has been available that describes the nature of such abuse and its relationship to treatment outcome. This article describes the extent of such abuse and reviews factors involved in its onset. The implications of the findings are discussed with an emphasis on how they can be applied to enhance treatment outcome.
