American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to require rehabilitation for drug and alcohol abuse and addiction. Reversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are also more likely to seek treatment on their own will more than other racial/ethnic groups. Roughly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native substance abuse treatment admissions show up to treatment as criminal justice clients, which means they have very likely agreed to a court ordered diversion program to go to rehab instead of jail time. So as one can see, there is a definite need for a variety of service types to provide services for all of the various requirements of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including addiction treatment programs in native languages.
One of the barriers that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Whitewater face is access to effective rehab programs, particularly those who live in rural locations. Facilities providing drug and alcohol rehab services in rural areas commonly are not capable of offering strategic planning designed to meet the needs and demands of this special demographic including addiction treatment services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native individuals can work with elders and stakeholders working in mental health services for their tribe or region to find out which treatment services are available to them through which rehab facilities, and which will be most effective for their scenario. 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 programs which provide evidence based treatment that also encompasses culturally sensitive recovery services delivered in their language which are performed by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
