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

American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to require rehabilitation for substance abuse and addiction. Reversely, 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 substance abuse treatment admissions show up to treatment as criminal justice clients, which means they have most likely accepted a diversion option to go to treatment in lieu of jail time. So therefore, there is definitely a need for different types of treatment programs to cover all of the various requirements of this client demographic, including addiction rehabilitation services in native languages.

One of the challenges that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Kinderhook face is access to comprehensive treatment facilities, especially those who live in secluded regions. Programs providing substance abuse treatment services in rural regions may not be capable of offering strategic planning aimed at meeting the needs and demands of this unique demographic 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 region or tribe to find out which services are an option for them through which facilities, and which ones will best suit their needs. There have been many grants offered in recent years to help pay for these types of services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effectively established programs which offer evidence based treatment that also integrates culturally sensitive recovery services delivered in their language which are provided by bi-lingual staff members.
