American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to need treatment for drug and alcohol abuse and addiction. Reversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are also more prone to seek treatment on their own will more than other racial/ethnic groups. Almost 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native substance abuse treatment admissions show up to rehab as criminal justice clients, meaning they have most likely accepted a diversion option to receive rehab instead of jail times for their charges. So as you can see, there is an absolute 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 challenges that American Indian and Alaska Natives in El Sobrante face is access to comprehensive rehab programs, especially those who reside in secluded areas. Facilities providing drug and alcohol rehab services in rural regions often are not set up to provide strategic planning intended for the needs and demands of this unique demographic including addiction rehabilitation services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native clients can consult with stakeholders and elders working in mental health services for their tribe or region to find out which treatment services are available to them through which facilities, and which will work best for their particular situation. There have been many grants sanctioned in recent years to help pay for these types of treatment services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effectively established programs which provide evidence based treatment that also incorporates culturally sensitive treatment services including those in their language which are provided by bi-lingual staff members.
