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. Reversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are also more likely 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 arrive to rehab as criminal justice clients, which means they have most likely agreed to a court ordered diversion program to receive treatment instead of jail times for their charges. So as one can see, there is definitely a need for different types of treatment programs to provide services for all of the various needs of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including addiction treatment programs in native languages.
One of the challenges that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Avila Beach face is access to comprehensive services, especially those who reside in rural areas. Programs providing addiction rehab services in rural areas often are not capable of offering strategic planning aimed at meeting the needs and demands of this unique group of people including substance abuse treatment services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native clients can consult with elders and stakeholders working in mental health services for their region or tribe to find out which types of treatment services are an option for them through which treatment facilities, and which ones will be most effective for their scenario. There have been numerous grants approved in recent years to help pay for these types of rehab services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effectively established treatment programs which offer evidence based treatment that also encompasses culturally sensitive recovery services including those in their language which are provided by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
