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. Reversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are 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 agreed to a diversion option to go to treatment instead of jail time. So as one can see, there is an absolute need for different types of treatment programs to provide services for all of the very unique needs of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including addiction rehabilitation services in native languages.
One of the barriers that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Sun Valley face is access to comprehensive and effective rehab programs, particularly those who reside in rural locations. Programs offering addiction treatment services in rural areas often are not able to offer strategic planning intended for the needs of this distinctive demographic including addiction rehabilitation services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native clients can consult with stakeholders and elders working in mental health services for their region or tribe to determine which services are an option for them through which rehab facilities, and which will best suit their needs. There have been many grants offered in recent years to cover these types of services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effective treatment programs which provide evidence based treatment that also incorporates culturally sensitive recovery services delivered in their language which are provided by bi-lingual staff members.
