American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to be in need to recovery services 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 substance abuse treatment admissions show up to treatment as criminal justice clients, meaning they have most likely agreed to a diversion option to go to rehab instead of jail time. So as you can see, 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 barriers that American Indian and Alaska Natives in El Dorado face is access to comprehensive and effective services, particularly those who live in secluded locations. Facilities offering addiction treatment services in rural areas commonly are not able to offer support aimed at meeting the needs of this special group of people including addiction rehabilitation services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native people can work with stakeholders and elders involved in mental health services for their region or tribe to figure out which services are an option for them through which treatment facilities, and which ones will work best for their particular situation. There have been numerous grants sanctioned in recent years to help pay for these types of rehab services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effective 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.
