[BDSP. Notice produite par INIST-CNRS 96R0xBKL. Diffusion soumise à autorisation]. Objective : This article presents an overview of child abuse among culturally diverse populations in Hawaii, substance use among culturally diverse students in Hawaii, and culturally based interventions for preventing child abuse and substance abuse in Native Hawaiian families. Observations : Native Hawaiians accounted for the largest number of cases of child abuse and neglect in Hawaii between 1996 and 1998. Alcohol and other drugs have increasingly been linked with child maltreatment. Native Hawaiian youths report the highest rate of substance use in Hawaii. Cultural factors such as spirituality, family, and cultural identification and pride are important in interventions with Native Hawaiians. Conclusion : Human services should continue to emphasize interventions that integrate "mainstream" and cultural-specific approaches.
