American Indian or Alaska Native Languages - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Goshen, NY.

American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to need recovery services for drug and alcohol abuse and addiction. Reversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are more prone to feel the need to seek treatment than other racial/ethnic groups. Nearly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native substance abuse treatment admissions show up to treatment as criminal justice clients, meaning they have most likely agreed to a court ordered diversion program to receive treatment instead of jail time. So as one can see, there is a definite need for different types of treatment programs to cover all of the various needs of this client demographic, including addiction treatment programs in native languages.

One of the challenges that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Goshen face is access to comprehensive and effective services, particularly those who live in secluded regions. Programs providing drug and alcohol rehab services in rural regions commonly are not capable of offering support aimed at meeting the needs of this special demographic including addiction rehabilitation services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native clients can work with stakeholders and elders involved in mental health services for their region or tribe to find out which services are an option for them and through which rehab facilities, and which will best suit their needs. There have been many grants sanctioned in recent years to cover these types of services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effective treatment programs which provide evidence based treatment that also incorporates culturally sensitive rehab services including those in their language which are performed by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
