American Indian or Alaska Native Languages - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Wells, NY.

American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to require recovery services for drug and alcohol abuse and addiction. Conversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are more likely to feel the need to seek treatment than other racial/ethnic groups. Roughly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native addiction treatment admissions show up to treatment as criminal justice clients, meaning they have very likely accepted a court ordered diversion program to go to rehab in lieu of jail time. So as one can see, there is a definite need for different types of treatment programs to cover all of the very unique needs of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including addiction treatment services in native languages.

One of the barriers that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Wells face is access to effective rehab programs, particularly those who live in secluded locations. Programs providing substance abuse rehab services in rural areas may not be capable of offering support aimed at meeting the needs of this distinctive group of people including addiction rehabilitation services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native individuals can consult with stakeholders and elders involved in mental health services for their region or tribe to determine which services are an option for them and through which treatment facilities, and which ones will work best for their particular situation. There have been many grants sanctioned in recent years to cover these types of rehab services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effectively established treatment programs which provide evidence based treatment that also incorporates culturally sensitive recovery services including those in their language which are performed by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
