Because the Native American and Alaska Native cultures typically have extremely high rates of drug and alcohol abuse, it is essential that alcohol and drug treatment programs be made accessible to those in Fort Yukon which are culturally acceptable and offer rehab in their language as needed. Due to the fact Native Americans and Alaska Natives do sometimes use drugs due to cultural issues, it is evident that these issues may be a challenge in treatment. If the rehab facility understands these challenges, rehab will go much more smoothly and there will be a much better likelihood at complete rehabilitation. For example, rehabilitation which is provided in the language of Native Americans and Alaska Natives will ultimately provide much better results for these people in Fort Yukon, because this will ensure that each and every phase of the process is grasped by both client and rehabilitation experts.
