American Indian or Alaska Native Languages - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Bay Shore, NY.

American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to be in need to rehabilitation for substance abuse and addiction. Conversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are more likely to seek treatment on their own will more than other racial/ethnic groups. Roughly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native addiction treatment admissions arrive to treatment as criminal justice clients, meaning they have very likely accepted a court ordered diversion program to receive treatment instead of jail times for their charges. So as one can see, there is an absolute need for a variety of service types to provide services for all of the various needs of this client demographic, including addiction rehabilitation programs in native languages.

One of the challenges that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Bay Shore face is access to comprehensive services, especially those who reside in secluded locations. Facilities offering drug and alcohol rehab services in rural regions often are not set up to provide support aimed at meeting the needs of this unique group of people including addiction rehabilitation services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native people can work with stakeholders and elders working in mental health services for their region or tribe to determine which treatment services are available to them through which rehab 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 provide evidence based treatment that also incorporates culturally sensitive treatment services delivered in their language which are provided by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
