American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to need rehabilitation for substance abuse and addiction. Reversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are more prone to seek treatment on their own will more than other racial/ethnic groups. Roughly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native drug and alcohol treatment admissions show up to treatment as criminal justice clients, meaning they have most likely agreed to a diversion option to receive treatment instead of jail time. So as you can see, 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 challenges that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Forest Falls face is access to effective rehab programs, particularly those who live in rural regions. Facilities offering drug and alcohol treatment services in rural regions often are not able to offer strategic planning aimed at meeting the needs of this distinctive demographic including addiction treatment services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native clients can work with stakeholders and elders working in mental health services for their region or tribe to figure out which treatment services are an option for them through which rehab facilities, and which ones will work best for their particular situation. There have been many grants offered in recent years to cover these types of treatment services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effectively established treatment programs which provide evidence based treatment that also encompasses culturally sensitive treatment services including those in their language which are provided by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
