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. Reversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are also more likely to feel the need to seek treatment than other racial/ethnic groups. Almost 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native addiction treatment admissions show up to rehab as criminal justice clients, which means 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 very unique needs of this client demographic, including substance abuse treatment programs in native languages.
One of the challenges that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Carlotta face is access to comprehensive and effective services, especially those who reside in rural areas. Facilities providing substance abuse rehabilitation services in rural regions often are not able to offer support intended for the needs of this special demographic including addiction treatment services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native people can consult with stakeholders and elders involved in mental health services for their region or tribe to determine which services are available to them through which facilities, and which will work best for their particular situation. There have been numerous 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 offer evidence based treatment that also integrates culturally sensitive treatment services delivered in their language which are provided by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
