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 feel the need to seek treatment than other racial/ethnic groups. Nearly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native substance abuse treatment admissions arrive to rehab as criminal justice clients, which means they have most likely agreed to a diversion option to go to rehab instead of jail time. So as you can see, there is definitely a need for a variety of service types to provide services for all of the various requirements of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including addiction rehabilitation programs in native languages.
One of the challenges that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Thermal face is access to effective rehab programs, especially those who live in secluded locations. Facilities offering addiction rehab services in rural areas commonly are not set up to provide strategic planning aimed at meeting the needs and demands of this distinctive group of people including substance abuse rehabilitation services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native clients can work with elders and stakeholders involved in mental health services for their tribe or region to figure out which services are an option for them and through which treatment facilities, and which will best suit their needs. There have been many grants offered in recent years to help pay for these types of services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effectively established programs which offer evidence based treatment that also integrates culturally sensitive treatment services delivered in their language which are performed by bi-lingual staff members.
