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

American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to need recovery services 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. Almost 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native substance abuse treatment admissions arrive to rehab as criminal justice clients, which means they have very likely agreed to a diversion option to go to rehab in lieu of jail times for their charges. So as you can see, there is definitely a need for different types of treatment programs to cover all of the very unique needs of this client demographic, including addiction treatment services in native languages.

One of the barriers that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Rome face is access to comprehensive treatment facilities, particularly those who live in secluded areas. Programs providing drug and alcohol rehab services in rural regions often are not set up to provide support designed to meet the needs and demands of this special demographic including substance abuse rehabilitation services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native clients can work with stakeholders and elders involved in mental health services for their tribe or region to find out which treatment services are an option for them and through which treatment facilities, and which will work best for their particular situation. There have been many grants sanctioned in recent years to help pay for these types of services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effective treatment programs which offer evidence based treatment that also incorporates culturally sensitive treatment services including those in their language which are provided by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
