American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to require recovery services for substance abuse and addiction. Reversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are more prone 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 show up to rehab as criminal justice clients, meaning they have very likely accepted a court ordered diversion program to go to rehab in lieu of jail time. So therefore, there is an absolute need for a variety of service types to provide services for all of the very unique needs of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including addiction treatment programs in native languages.
One of the challenges that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Tahoma face is access to effective treatment facilities, particularly those who live in secluded regions. Programs offering drug and alcohol rehabilitation services in rural regions may not be able to offer strategic planning aimed at meeting the needs and demands of this distinctive group of people including addiction treatment services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native clients can consult with elders and stakeholders involved in mental health services for their tribe or region to find out which treatment services are available to them and through which rehab facilities, and which will best suit their needs. There have been many grants approved in recent years to cover these types of rehab services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effectively established programs which provide evidence based treatment that also incorporates culturally sensitive rehab services including those in their language which are performed by bi-lingual staff members.
