American Indian or Alaska Native Languages - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Altoona, WI.

American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to require treatment for drug and alcohol abuse and addiction. On the Contrary, American Indians and Alaska Natives are 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, which means they have most likely agreed to a court ordered diversion program to receive treatment in lieu of jail times for their charges. So as one can see, there is a definite need for a variety of service types to cover all of the various requirements of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including addiction treatment services in native languages.

One of the problems that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Altoona face is access to comprehensive and effective treatment facilities, particularly those who live in rural areas. Programs offering addiction treatment services in rural regions commonly are not set up to provide strategic planning aimed at meeting the needs and demands of this unique demographic including addiction treatment services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native individuals can work with elders and stakeholders involved in mental health services for their region or tribe to find out which treatment services are an option for them and through which rehab facilities, and which ones will work best for their particular situation. There have been many grants approved in recent years to help pay for these types of services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effectively established recovery programs which provide evidence based treatment that also encompasses culturally sensitive rehab services including those in their language which are provided by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
