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

American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to need treatment 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 show up to rehab as criminal justice clients, meaning they have very likely accepted a court ordered diversion program to go to rehab in lieu of jail times for their charges. So as one can see, there is an absolute need for different types of treatment programs to cover all of the various requirements of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including addiction treatment services in native languages.

One of the challenges that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Sylmar face is access to comprehensive and effective services, particularly those who live in rural locations. Programs offering substance abuse rehab services in rural areas commonly are not set up to provide strategic planning intended for the needs of this distinctive group of people including substance abuse rehabilitation services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native people can work with elders and stakeholders involved in mental health services for their region or tribe to find out which services are an option for them through which rehab facilities, and which will work best for their particular situation. There have been numerous grants sanctioned in recent years to help pay for these types of treatment services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effectively established treatment programs which provide evidence based treatment that also encompasses culturally sensitive treatment services including those in their language which are provided by bi-lingual staff members.
