Projections indicate that by the year 2000 over a million Cambodians, Laotians, and Vietnamese will be living in the United States. There is sparse information relative to the use of substances by these groups due to the absence of national prevalence data. The combined stressors that these refugee groups have faced puts them at high risk for substance misuse. Southeast Asians infrequently use substance misuse and mental health services, which has been perceived as a lack of need for services by these groups. In reality, there is a critical shortage of culturally-appropriate treatment and intervention programs as the prevalence of substance misuse increases in these populations.
