American Indian or Alaska Native Languages - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Eagle River, AK.

American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to require rehabilitation for substance abuse and addiction. Conversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are more prone to feel the need to seek treatment than other racial/ethnic groups. Roughly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native addiction treatment admissions arrive to treatment as criminal justice clients, meaning they have most likely accepted a diversion option to receive treatment instead of jail time. So therefore, there is definitely a need for different types of treatment programs to cover all of the various requirements of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including substance abuse treatment programs in native languages.

One of the problems that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Eagle River face is access to effective rehab programs, especially those who reside in rural areas. Facilities offering substance abuse treatment services in rural regions commonly are not set up to provide support designed to meet the needs of this special group of people including addiction rehabilitation services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native clients can work with stakeholders and elders involved in mental health services for their region or tribe to figure out which types of treatment services are an option for them through which facilities, and which ones will work best for their particular situation. There have been many grants approved in recent years to help pay for these types of treatment services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effective programs which offer evidence based treatment that also incorporates culturally sensitive rehab services including those in their language which are provided by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
