One of the challenges that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Breckenridge face is access to comprehensive and effective rehab programs, particularly those who reside in rural locations. Programs offering substance abuse treatment services in rural areas commonly are not set up to provide strategic planning aimed at meeting the needs of this distinctive group of people including substance abuse rehabilitation services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native people can consult with stakeholders and elders involved in mental health services for their region or tribe to determine which treatment services are an option for them through which rehab facilities, and which will work best for their particular situation.
