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 more likely 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 arrive to treatment as criminal justice clients, meaning they have most likely accepted a diversion option to receive rehab in lieu of jail times for their charges. So as you can see, there is definitely a need for different types of treatment programs to cover all of the various requirements of this client demographic, including addiction treatment services in native languages.
One of the problems that American Indian and Alaska Natives in March Air Reserve Base face is access to comprehensive services, especially those who reside in secluded areas. Programs providing drug and alcohol rehab services in rural areas often are not able to offer strategic planning intended for the needs and demands of this unique group of people including substance abuse rehabilitation services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native people can work with elders and stakeholders involved in mental health services for their region or tribe to figure out which services are available to them through which facilities, and which will work best for their particular situation. There have been numerous grants sanctioned in recent years to cover these types of rehab services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effectively established recovery programs which provide evidence based treatment that also incorporates culturally sensitive rehab services including those in their language which are performed by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
