Limited information exists about African American parents' substance use and attitudes, independent of how they relate to their children. This study examined whether the behaviors and attitudes of a sample of African American parents differed from the general population of adults. Results indicated their attitudes were relatively more conservative, and that alcohol and illicit drug use were lower. Cigarette and marijuana use were comparable. Correlations between attitudes and behaviors were found. Findings suggest that increased educational efforts are needed among parents, especially about cigarettes, marijuana, and the negative impact these attitudes and behaviors may have on their children
