Members of the National Indian Board on Alcoholism and Drug Abuse are requesting your support in our effort to fight yet another form of Indian genocide. That a separate entity be established under the Bureau of Indian Affairs with direct line-item authority utilizing its already existing resources, for the purposes of early identification, research, education, and prevention of alcoholism or alcohol abuse and drug problems. To recognize drug abuse as a seriously developing problem among Indian and Alaskan Native populations. To establish a separate unit under the National Institute on Drug Abuse for research, prevention and treatment of drug abuse problems among American Indians and Alaskan Natives. That present funding efforts be recognized as insufficient in meeting the needs of the problem and therefore the need to increase funds for implemen- tation of both new and existing programs be recognized.
