Lessons Learned: Influencing Race Relations
Race, ethnicity, and class are central elements in American community life. Racial or ethnic stereotypes, usually inaccurate, are often used to characterize a community's drug or alcohol problems. In the spring of 1998, Join Together and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation convened a series of meetings with leaders from six communities to explore how their efforts to reduce substance abuse may be affecting local race relations. This pamphlet contains a series of "lessons learned" which can be valuable tools for other communities confronting similar issues.
