Summary

Indian Juvenile Alcohol and Drug Abuse Prevention Act - Title I: Inter-Departmental Agreement - Directs the Secretary of the Interior and the Secretary of Health and Human Services to agree to coordinate specified efforts of the Bureau of Indian Affairs (Bureau) and the Indian Health Service relating to alcohol and drug abuse programs for Indian youth. Provides for the biannual review of such agreement by the Secretary of the Interior and the Secretary of Health and Human Services. Requires certain officials of the Bureau and the Indian Health Service to agree, upon a tribe's request, to coordinate resources and services related to alcohol and drug abuse with any Indian tribe. Requires the Secretary of the Interior, acting through the Bureau, and the Secretary of Health and Human Services, acting through the Indian Health Service, to bear equal responsibility for the implementation of this Act in cooperation with Indian tribes. Title II: Education - Amends the Indian Elementary and Secondary School Assistance Act, the Indian Education Act, and the Adult Education Act, respectively, to provide for: (1) grants for the training of alcohol and drug abuse counselors in Indian elementary and secondary schools; (2) a specified percentage of fellowships to be awarded to persons specializing in guidance counseling for alcohol and drug abuse; and (3) grants to support adult education projects which provide alcohol and drug abuse counseling services. Requires Bureau schools and schools operated under the Indian Self-Determination and Education Assistance Act to provide instruction on alcohol and drug abuse to students in kindergarten and grades one through 12. Directs the Secretary of the Interior to: (1) establish summer recreation and counseling programs, coordinated with other similar Indian summer programs, for Indian youth on reservations; (2) require Bureau schools and schools operated under the Indian Self-determination and Education Assistance Act to remain open during the summer months of each year to provide adequate facilities (including use of public and private facilities) for such programs; and (3) provide, as needed, salaried coordinators for such programs. Requires the Secretary of the Interior to publish, on a quarterly basis, an alcohol and drug abuse newsletter and to circulate it to specified Government agencies that provide such alcohol and drug abuse-related services to Indian people. Title III: Family and Social Services - Requires any training program for community health representatives funded under the Bureau to include not less than two weeks of training on the problems of alcohol and drug abuse, including instruction in crisis intervention, family relations, and the causes and effects of fetal alcohol syndrome.

Provides for the detention, in lieu of incarceration, of Indian juveniles in temporary emergency shelters (Indian households) if their offenses are related to the use or possession of drugs or alcohol. Directs the Secretary of the Interior to promulgate, in consultation with the U.S. Attorney General, guidelines under which a law enforcement officer may place an Indian youth arrested for drug or alcohol abuse in a facility other than an emergency shelter. Provides that in instances where a State exercises criminal jurisdiction over any part of Indian country that such State is urged to require its law enforcement officers to place any Indian juvenile arrested for alcohol or drug abuse-related offenses in a temporary emergency shelter (Indian household) or community-based alcohol or drug abuse treatment facility in lieu of incarceration. Provides for the compensation and licensing of Indian households that are used as emergency shelters. Title V: Juvenile Alcohol and Drug Abuse Treatment and Rehabilitation - Requires the Director of the Indian Health Service to conduct a study to determine: (1) the size of the Indian population in need of residential alcohol and drug abuse treatment; (2) where facilities to provide such treatment are or should be located; and (3) the cost of providing such treatment.
