Abstract

This paper is based on Israeli substance abuse research in the professional literature in Hebrew and English, and on drug and alcohol prevention research and programs aimed at Jewish youth in Israel over the last 20 years, with an emphasis on the last decade. The four main areas of focus - school-based prevention programs, evaluation of prevention programs, community-based prevention projects and mass media research issues - have been elucidated by an examination of the 1970s, the 1980s and the beginning of the 1990s. Included in this study are some insights into future directions as well as a description of theoretical prevention models that have been applied in Israel.
