American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to need recovery services for substance abuse and addiction. On the Contrary, American Indians and Alaska Natives are more prone to feel the need to seek treatment 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, which means they have very likely agreed to a court ordered diversion program to receive treatment in lieu of jail times for their charges. So therefore, there is an absolute need for a variety of service types to provide services for all of the very unique needs of this client demographic, including substance abuse treatment services in native languages.
One of the challenges that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Ellendale face is access to effective rehab programs, particularly those who reside in secluded areas. Facilities providing addiction rehabilitation services in rural regions often are not set up to provide support 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 consult with stakeholders and elders involved in mental health services for their tribe or region to find out which services are available to them through which facilities, and which will best suit their needs. There have been many grants offered in recent years to help pay for these types of treatment services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effectively established recovery 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.
