American Indian or Alaska Native Languages - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - O Neals, CA.

American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to be in need to treatment for drug and alcohol abuse and addiction. Reversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are also more prone to seek treatment on their own will more than other racial/ethnic groups. Roughly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native substance abuse treatment admissions arrive to rehab as criminal justice clients, meaning they have most likely agreed to a court ordered diversion program to go to treatment instead of jail time. So as one can see, there is a definite need for different types of treatment programs to provide services for all of the very unique requirements of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including addiction rehabilitation programs in native languages.

One of the problems that American Indian and Alaska Natives in O Neals face is access to effective services, especially those who reside in secluded areas. Programs providing drug and alcohol treatment services in rural regions often are not set up to provide strategic planning designed to meet the needs of this distinctive demographic including addiction treatment services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native clients can consult with elders and stakeholders working in mental health services for their tribe or region to determine which treatment services are available to 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 help pay for these types of services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effective programs which provide evidence based treatment that also integrates culturally sensitive rehab services delivered in their language which are performed by bi-lingual staff members.
