Abstract:
This program evaluation examined the effects of the Hui Ho 'ola O Na Nahulu O Hawai'i (or Hui Project) culturally-based interventions on substance abuse treatment. The Hui Project, an outpatient drug treatment program funded initially by a United States Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services (SAMHSA) Center of Substance Abuse Treatment (CSAT) Rural and Remote Culturally Distinct Population grant, obtained data from a sample of 116 primarily Pacific Islander adult females from an economically disadvantaged area of the "Big Island" of Hawai'i'. This study found significant results from the Hui Project treatment. Four statistically significant positive correlations were also found between intermediate outcomes (risk/protective factors) and impact outcomes (ATOD use/life functioning). These correlations were problem solving/days of illicit drugs, problem solving/days of marijuana use, self esteem/days of marijuana use, and family functioning/days of marijuana use.
