American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to need recovery services for drug and alcohol abuse and addiction. Reversely, 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 drug and alcohol treatment admissions arrive to rehab as criminal justice clients, which means they have most likely accepted a court ordered diversion program to go to rehab in lieu of jail times for their charges. So as you can see, there is an absolute need for a variety of service types to cover all of the very unique needs of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including substance abuse treatment programs in native languages.
One of the problems that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Riverton face is access to effective treatment facilities, especially those who reside in rural locations. Facilities providing drug and alcohol treatment services in rural regions commonly are not able to offer strategic planning designed to meet the needs and demands of this special group of people including substance abuse rehabilitation services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native individuals can consult with elders and stakeholders working in mental health services for their region or tribe to figure out which services are available to them and through which facilities, and which ones will best suit their needs. There have been many grants sanctioned in recent years to cover these types of treatment services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effectively established recovery programs which offer evidence based treatment that also incorporates culturally sensitive rehab services delivered in their language which are provided by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
