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. Conversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are also more prone to feel the need to seek treatment than other racial/ethnic groups. Roughly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native addiction treatment admissions arrive to rehab as criminal justice clients, which means they have very likely agreed to a diversion option to receive rehab 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 requirements of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including addiction treatment services in native languages.
One of the problems that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Thornton face is access to effective services, particularly those who live in secluded regions. Programs providing drug and alcohol rehabilitation services in rural regions often are not able to offer strategic planning designed to meet the needs of this special group of people including substance abuse treatment services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native individuals can consult with elders and stakeholders involved in mental health services for their region or tribe to determine which treatment services are available to them and through which rehab facilities, and which will be most effective for their scenario. There have been many grants sanctioned in recent years to cover these types of services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effective recovery programs which offer evidence based treatment that also encompasses culturally sensitive treatment services delivered in their language which are performed by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
