American Indian or Alaska Native Languages - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Kotzebue, 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 likely to feel the need to seek treatment than other racial/ethnic groups. Roughly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native substance abuse treatment admissions arrive to rehab as criminal justice clients, which means they have very likely agreed to a diversion option to receive treatment in lieu of jail time. So therefore, there is an absolute need for a variety of service types to cover all of the very unique requirements of this client demographic, including addiction treatment services in native languages.

One of the problems that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Kotzebue face is access to effective treatment facilities, especially those who live in secluded locations. Programs providing drug and alcohol treatment services in rural regions may not be capable of offering strategic planning designed to meet the needs and demands of this special demographic including substance abuse rehabilitation services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native individuals can consult with stakeholders and elders working in mental health services for their tribe or region to figure out which services are an option for them through which facilities, and which will best suit their needs. There have been numerous grants offered in recent years to cover these types of treatment services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effective programs which offer evidence based treatment that also encompasses culturally sensitive recovery services delivered in their language which are provided by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
