Reducing the effects of parental substance abuse on children : a spiritual recommendation.
Journal of African American Studies
(2005)
Abstract
Numerous programs have been developed and implemented to reduce the number of unwanted children susceptible to parental substance use. One such program. Children Requiring A Caring Kommunity (C.R.A.C.K.), which focuses primarily on birth control methods as an alternative to reducing the number of children exposed to maternal substance use, is beginning to receive mixed reviews; particularly, among the African American community. This article discusses the C.R.A.C.K. program along with a spiritual alternative to maternal substance use. Implications
for practitioners are discussed.
