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 more likely to seek treatment on their own will more than other racial/ethnic groups. Nearly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native substance abuse treatment admissions show up to treatment as criminal justice clients, meaning they have most likely accepted a court ordered diversion program to receive rehab in lieu of jail time. So as you can see, there is definitely a need for different types of treatment programs to provide services for all of the various needs of this client demographic, including addiction rehabilitation programs in native languages.
One of the barriers that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Penn Valley face is access to effective treatment facilities, particularly those who reside in secluded areas. Programs providing addiction rehab services in rural areas often are not capable of offering support intended for the needs and demands of this special group of people including addiction rehabilitation services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native individuals can work with stakeholders and elders working in mental health services for their tribe or region to determine which treatment services are available to them through which facilities, and which will work best for their particular situation. There have been many grants approved in recent years to cover these types of treatment services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effective treatment programs which offer evidence based treatment that also encompasses culturally sensitive treatment services including those in their language which are provided by bi-lingual staff members.
