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

American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to need rehabilitation for substance abuse and addiction. Reversely, 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, which means they have very likely accepted a diversion option 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 provide services for all of the various needs of this client demographic, including addiction treatment programs in native languages.

One of the barriers that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Wishon face is access to comprehensive and effective rehab programs, particularly those who live in secluded areas. Programs offering drug and alcohol rehabilitation services in rural areas may not be set up to provide strategic planning intended for the needs and demands of this unique group of people including substance abuse treatment services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native individuals can work with elders and stakeholders working in mental health services for their tribe or region to determine which treatment services are an option for them through which facilities, and which will work best for their particular situation. There have been numerous grants offered in recent years to cover these types of rehab services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effective treatment programs which offer evidence based treatment that also incorporates culturally sensitive recovery services delivered in their language which are performed by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
