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. Conversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are more prone to seek treatment on their own will more than other racial/ethnic groups. Roughly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native drug and alcohol treatment admissions arrive to rehab as criminal justice clients, which means they have very likely accepted a court ordered diversion program to go to treatment in lieu of jail time. So as one can see, there is definitely a need for a variety of service types to cover all of the various requirements of this client demographic, including addiction rehabilitation programs in native languages.
One of the barriers that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Brooks face is access to effective services, particularly those who reside in rural areas. Programs providing addiction treatment services in rural regions may not be set up to provide strategic planning intended for the needs of this special demographic including addiction rehabilitation services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native people can work with elders and stakeholders working in mental health services for their tribe or region to determine which types of treatment services are an option for them through which treatment facilities, and which will work best for their particular situation. There have been many grants offered in recent years to cover these types of services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effective treatment programs which offer evidence based treatment that also incorporates culturally sensitive rehab services including those in their language which are performed by bi-lingual staff members.
