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. On the Contrary, American Indians and Alaska Natives are more likely 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 arrive to rehab as criminal justice clients, which means they have most likely accepted a diversion option to go to treatment in lieu of jail time. So as one can see, there is a definite need for a variety of service types 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 Lincoln face is access to comprehensive treatment facilities, particularly those who live in secluded areas. Programs offering addiction rehab services in rural regions commonly are not capable of offering strategic planning intended for the needs and demands of this unique demographic including substance abuse treatment services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native people can work with elders and stakeholders working in mental health services for their tribe or region to determine which types of treatment services are available to them through which rehab facilities, and which will be most effective for their scenario. There have been many grants sanctioned in recent years to cover these types of treatment services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effective treatment programs which provide evidence based treatment that also encompasses culturally sensitive recovery services delivered in their language which are provided by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
