REYNOSO VALLEJO, Humberto. Social capital and substance abuse treatment among low-income Puertorican women. Rev. pueblos front. digit. [online]. 2010, vol.5, n.10, pp.250-302. ISSN 1870-4115. https://doi.org/10.22201/cimsur.18704115e.2010.10.152.
The prevalence of substance abuse constitutes an increasing problem among low-income urban women in Puerto Rico. Access to treatment may play an important role in remission, however, little is known about women‘s utilization. Further, the mediating role of social capital in substance abuse treatment utilization is unknown. This study examines the relative role of social capital and other factors in obtaining substance abuse treatment of women ages 18-35 living in high-risk urban areas of San Juan, Puerto Rico.
