Alcoholism in San Francisco. A community study and recommended program.

In a community health council study of alcoholism in San Francisco it was suggested that alcoholism be considered a disease that afflicts an individual, affects his family, constitutes a major public health problem and produces social and economic disorder in the community. It is recommended that alcoholism, like many other diseases, be approached through a broad program of professional and public education, research into epidemiology and study of more effective methods of prevention, treatment, and rehabilitation, and that patient services commensurate with the scope of the problem be provided. Specific recommendations emphasized the role of the medical profession and related professions and facilities in the prevention and control of alcoholism.
