American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to require rehabilitation for substance abuse and addiction. Reversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are more likely to seek treatment on their own will more than other racial/ethnic groups. Nearly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native addiction treatment admissions arrive to treatment as criminal justice clients, meaning they have very likely accepted a diversion option to go to rehab in lieu of jail times for their charges. So as you can see, there is an absolute need for different types of treatment programs to cover all of the various needs of this client demographic, including addiction treatment services in native languages.
One of the problems that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Bolinas face is access to effective services, particularly those who reside in rural regions. Facilities providing drug and alcohol rehab services in rural areas often are not able to offer strategic planning intended for the needs and demands of this unique demographic including addiction treatment services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native people can work with elders and stakeholders involved in mental health services for their tribe or region to find out which treatment services are available to them through which treatment facilities, and which will be most effective for their scenario. There have been numerous grants approved in recent years to cover these types of services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effective treatment programs which offer evidence based treatment that also integrates culturally sensitive rehab services delivered in their language which are provided by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
