American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to be in need to rehabilitation for substance abuse and addiction. On the Contrary, American Indians and Alaska Natives are more prone to feel the need to seek treatment than other racial/ethnic groups. Almost 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native substance abuse treatment admissions show up to rehab as criminal justice clients, meaning they have very likely agreed to a diversion option to go to rehab in lieu of jail time. So therefore, there is a definite need for different types of treatment programs to cover all of the various needs of this client demographic, including addiction rehabilitation services in native languages.
One of the problems that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Valentine face is access to effective treatment facilities, particularly those who live in rural locations. Programs providing addiction treatment services in rural areas commonly are not capable of offering strategic planning aimed at meeting the needs and demands of this special group of people including substance abuse rehabilitation services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native people can consult with elders and stakeholders working in mental health services for their region or tribe to figure out which types of treatment services are available to them through which facilities, and which ones will best suit their needs. There have been numerous grants sanctioned in recent years to help pay for these types of treatment services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effective treatment programs which provide evidence based treatment that also encompasses culturally sensitive recovery services including those in their language which are provided by bi-lingual staff members.
