American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to require treatment for substance abuse and addiction. Conversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are also more likely to feel the need to seek treatment than other racial/ethnic groups. Nearly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native addiction treatment admissions arrive to rehab as criminal justice clients, meaning they have very likely accepted a diversion option to go to rehab in lieu of jail time. So as one can see, there is definitely a need for a variety of service types to provide services for all of the very unique requirements of this client demographic, including substance abuse treatment programs in native languages.
One of the challenges that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Mount Hermon face is access to comprehensive and effective rehab programs, particularly those who live in rural locations. Facilities providing substance abuse rehab services in rural regions commonly are not able to offer support designed to meet the needs of this special group of people including addiction rehabilitation services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native individuals can work with elders and stakeholders involved in mental health services for their region or tribe to determine which treatment services are an option for them through which treatment facilities, and which ones will be most effective for their scenario. There have been many grants offered in recent years to help pay for these types of services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effective recovery programs which provide evidence based treatment that also incorporates culturally sensitive recovery services delivered in their language which are provided by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
