American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to require treatment for substance abuse and addiction. Conversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are also more likely to seek treatment on their own will more than other racial/ethnic groups. Nearly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native substance abuse treatment admissions show up to rehab as criminal justice clients, which means they have most likely agreed to a diversion option to receive rehab in lieu 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 American Indian or Alaska Natives, including addiction treatment programs in native languages.
One of the challenges that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Fountain Hills face is access to comprehensive and effective treatment facilities, particularly those who live in rural locations. Facilities providing addiction treatment services in rural areas may not be set up to provide strategic planning aimed at meeting the needs and demands of this unique group of people including addiction treatment services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native people can consult 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 and through which facilities, and which ones will work best for their particular situation. There have been many grants offered in recent years to help pay for these types of services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effective recovery programs which offer evidence based treatment that also incorporates culturally sensitive rehab services including those in their language which are provided by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
