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

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. On the Contrary, American Indians and Alaska Natives are also more prone to feel the need to seek treatment than other racial/ethnic groups. Nearly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native addiction treatment admissions show up to treatment as criminal justice clients, meaning they have most likely agreed to a diversion option to receive rehab instead of jail times for their charges. So as you can see, there is a definite need for a variety of service types to provide services for all of the very unique needs of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including addiction rehabilitation programs in native languages.

One of the barriers that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Lawtons face is access to comprehensive rehab programs, especially those who live in rural locations. Facilities offering substance abuse rehabilitation services in rural areas may not be set up to provide support intended for the needs of this unique demographic 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 services are available to them through which rehab facilities, and which ones will work best for their particular situation. There have been many grants sanctioned in recent years to help pay for these types of rehab services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effectively established programs which offer evidence based treatment that also integrates culturally sensitive treatment services delivered in their language which are performed by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
