INTRODUCTION: Asian Americans (AA) in need of treatment for alcohol or substance use utilize substance use treatment at lower rates than all other races/ethnicities. This study tested if the lack of utilization is offset by greater informal substance use treatment utilization.
METHODS: Analysis utilized pooled data from 2015 to 2019 National Survey of Drug Use and Health (NSDUH) in individuals aged ≥18. Unadjusted proportions, confidence intervals, and adjusted multivariate logistical regression examined the relationship of race/ethnicity (Asian, White, Black, and Hispanic) and substance use treatment in individuals with 12-month substance/alcohol use or AUD/SUD. Classifications of treatment were formal (doctor's office, mental health center, hospital, rehabilitation facility) or informal (self-help group, home/family/friends, school/college, or Church/religious/spiritual influence).
RESULTS: AA with AUD/SUD were significantly less likely to utilize formal substance use than individuals who were White (aOR = 0.28, p < 0.05). There was no significant difference in informal treatment utilization between AA with alcohol use, substance use or AUD/SUD and individuals of any other race/ethnicity. AA with AUD/SUD utilized combined (both informal and formal) services significantly less than individuals who were White (aOR = 0.31, p < 0.05).
DISCUSSION: Informal services did not offset the limited substance use treatment engagement in AA. More work is needed to better and understand low rates of substance use treatment in this population.
