Bemidji, MN. - Native American Or Alaska Native Language Services
Native Americans and Alaska Natives have significantly increased rates of substance abuse and addiction than other races, an a circumstance which should be addressed for these people to survive. While the causes may vary from individual to person, many of the factors for the significantly higher rates of abuse amongst Native American and Alaska Natives have to do with their culture. In fact, Native American and Alaska Native adolescents have some of the highest rates of drug and alcohol abuse in the U.S.. The most obvious barriers to helping Native Americans and Alaska Natives for drug and alcohol addiction are cultural differences and their language. This is why it is vital that Native Americans and Alaska Natives in Bemidji obtain treatment services in a drug and alcohol treatment center that is culturally acceptable, and more importantly in a drug rehab program that considers the need to supply drug rehab in their native tongue.
