American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to be in need to treatment for drug and alcohol abuse and addiction. Conversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are also more prone to feel the need to seek treatment 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 diversion option to receive treatment in lieu of jail times for their charges. So therefore, there is a definite need for different types of treatment programs to provide services for all of the various requirements of this client demographic, including addiction treatment programs in native languages.
One of the barriers that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Cupertino face is access to effective services, particularly those who live in rural regions. Programs offering substance abuse rehabilitation services in rural regions commonly are not set up to provide strategic planning designed to meet the needs and demands of this special group of people including addiction treatment services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native people can consult with stakeholders and elders working in mental health services for their tribe or region to figure out which types of treatment services are an option for them through which facilities, and which ones will work best for their particular situation. There have been many grants sanctioned in recent years to cover 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 integrates culturally sensitive rehab services delivered in their language which are performed by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
