Abstract
In this paper, women's alcohol use and related problems are examined and special reference is given to the various psycho-social factors involved. The need for a special treatment approach for women is discussed and the lack of knowledge in this area highlighted. The areas of alcohol relapse and women-only groups are explored as possible areas for future development and research.Keywords
