American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to be in need to treatment 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. Roughly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native substance abuse treatment admissions arrive to treatment as criminal justice clients, meaning they have very likely agreed to a court ordered diversion program to receive treatment in lieu of jail times for their charges. So therefore, there is definitely a need for a variety of service types to cover all of the very unique requirements of this client demographic, including substance abuse treatment services in native languages.
One of the problems that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Canoga Park face is access to comprehensive treatment facilities, especially those who live in secluded regions. Facilities providing substance abuse treatment services in rural areas may not be set up to provide support designed to meet the needs and demands of this special group of people including substance abuse treatment services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native clients can work with elders and stakeholders involved in mental health services for their tribe or region to find out which services are an option for them through which facilities, and which will work best for their particular situation. There have been many grants approved in recent years to help pay for these types of treatment services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effectively established recovery programs which provide evidence based treatment that also encompasses culturally sensitive rehab services including those in their language which are performed by bi-lingual staff members.
