American Indian or Alaska Native Languages - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Amherst, VA.

American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to need rehabilitation for drug and alcohol abuse and addiction. On the Contrary, American Indians and Alaska Natives are also 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 rehab as criminal justice clients, meaning they have most likely agreed to a court ordered diversion program to receive treatment instead of jail times for their charges. So as you can see, there is definitely a need for different types of treatment programs to provide services for all of the various requirements of this client demographic, including addiction treatment programs in native languages.

One of the challenges that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Amherst face is access to effective rehab programs, particularly those who reside in secluded areas. Facilities offering substance abuse rehab services in rural areas commonly are not able to offer strategic planning aimed at meeting the needs of this special demographic including substance abuse treatment services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native individuals can consult with stakeholders and elders working in mental health services for their region or tribe to find out which treatment services are an option for them through which facilities, and which ones will work best for their particular situation. There have been many grants offered in recent years to help pay for these types of treatment services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effective recovery programs which provide 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.
