O F FINDINGS AND 
PURPOSES 
"SEC. 240. (a) The Congress hereby finds that— 
"(1) Alcoholism is a major health and social problem afflicting a 
significant proportion of the public, and much more needs to be done 
by public and private agencies to develop effective prevention and 
control. 
"(2) Alcoholism treatment and control programs should whenever 
possible: (A) be community based, (B) provide a comprehensive 
range of services, including emergency treatment, under proper medical 
auspices on a coordinated basis, and (C) be integrated with and involve 
the active participation of a wide range of public and nongovernmental 
agencies. 
"(3) The handling of chronic alcoholics within the system of 
criminal justice perpetuates and aggravates the broad problem of 
alcoholism whereas treating it as a health problem permits early detec-
tion and prevention of alcoholism and effective treatment and rehabili-
tation, relieves police and other law enforcement agencies of an inap-
82 STAT. ] 
PUBLIC LAW 90-574-OCT. 15, 1968

propriate burden that impedes their important work, and better serves 
the interests of the public. 
"(b) It is the purpose of this part to help prevent and control 
alcoholism through authorization of Federal aid in the construction 
and staffing of facilities for the prevention and treatment of alcoholism. 
"(c) The Congress further declares that, in addition to the funds 
provided for under this part, other Federal legislation providing for 
Federal or federally assisted research, prevention, treatment, or reha-
bilitation programs in the fields of health should be utilized to help 
eradicate alcoholism as a major health problem.
