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

American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to require recovery services for substance abuse and addiction. Conversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are also more likely to feel the need to seek treatment than other racial/ethnic groups. Nearly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native addiction treatment admissions arrive to rehab as criminal justice clients, meaning they have very likely accepted a court ordered diversion program to go to rehab instead of jail time. So therefore, there is a definite need for a variety of service types to cover all of the various needs of this client demographic, including addiction rehabilitation services in native languages.

One of the problems that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Ridge face is access to effective rehab programs, particularly those who live in rural areas. Facilities providing drug and alcohol treatment services in rural regions commonly are not set up to provide support designed to meet the needs of this special demographic including substance abuse treatment services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native individuals can consult with elders and stakeholders involved in mental health services for their tribe or region to figure out which treatment services are an option for them through which facilities, and which will be most effective for their scenario. There have been numerous grants sanctioned in recent years to cover these types of services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effective programs which offer evidence based treatment that also integrates culturally sensitive treatment services including those in their language which are provided by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
