American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to be in need to treatment for substance abuse and addiction. On the Contrary, 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 addiction treatment admissions show up to rehab as criminal justice clients, meaning they have most likely agreed to a court ordered diversion program to go to rehab instead of jail times for their charges. So as you can see, there is a definite need for different types of treatment programs to provide services for all of the very unique requirements of this client demographic, including addiction treatment programs in native languages.
One of the barriers that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Brookston face is access to effective treatment facilities, particularly those who reside in rural regions. Facilities offering addiction rehab services in rural areas may not be capable of offering strategic planning designed to meet the needs and demands of this unique group of people including addiction rehabilitation services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native clients can work with stakeholders and elders working in mental health services for their region or tribe to figure out which services are available to them and through which rehab facilities, and which will work best for their particular situation. There have been many grants approved in recent years to cover these types of treatment services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effective programs which provide evidence based treatment that also encompasses culturally sensitive treatment services delivered in their language which are provided by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
