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. On the Contrary, American Indians and Alaska Natives are more prone to seek treatment on their own will more than other racial/ethnic groups. Almost 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native drug and alcohol treatment admissions show up to rehab as criminal justice clients, meaning they have most likely agreed to a court ordered diversion program to receive treatment in lieu of jail time. So as one can see, there is definitely a need for different types of treatment programs to cover all of the very unique requirements of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including substance abuse treatment services in native languages.
One of the problems that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Benson face is access to comprehensive services, particularly those who live in secluded areas. Facilities offering addiction rehab services in rural areas often are not able to offer strategic planning aimed at meeting the needs of this unique group of people including substance abuse treatment services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native individuals can consult with stakeholders and elders involved in mental health services for their tribe or region to find out which types of treatment services are an option for them and through which rehab facilities, and which will work best for their particular situation. There have been numerous grants sanctioned in recent years to cover these types of treatment services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effectively established programs which provide evidence based treatment that also integrates culturally sensitive recovery services including those in their language which are performed by bi-lingual staff members.
