American Indian or Alaska Native Languages - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Wood Village, OR.

American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to require recovery services for drug and alcohol abuse and addiction. Reversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are more likely to feel the need to seek treatment than other racial/ethnic groups. Almost 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native drug and alcohol treatment admissions show up to treatment as criminal justice clients, meaning they have very likely agreed to a court ordered diversion program to receive treatment in lieu of jail time. 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 substance abuse treatment programs in native languages.

One of the barriers that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Wood Village face is access to comprehensive and effective treatment facilities, particularly those who reside in rural locations. Programs offering drug and alcohol rehabilitation services in rural regions often are not capable of offering strategic planning intended for the needs and demands of this special group of people including addiction treatment services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native individuals can work with stakeholders and elders working in mental health services for their region or tribe to find out which types of treatment services are an option for them and through which treatment facilities, and which ones will work best for their particular situation. There have been numerous grants sanctioned in recent years to help pay for these types of rehab services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effective programs which provide evidence based treatment that also integrates culturally sensitive recovery services including those in their language which are provided by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
