American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to be in need to recovery services for substance 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. Nearly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native substance abuse treatment admissions arrive to treatment as criminal justice clients, which means they have very likely accepted a diversion option to go to rehab instead of jail times for their charges. So therefore, there is an absolute need for different types of treatment programs to cover all of the various requirements of this client demographic, including substance abuse treatment programs in native languages.
One of the problems that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Bar Harbor face is access to effective treatment facilities, particularly those who live in secluded locations. Programs offering substance abuse treatment services in rural regions often are not set up to provide support intended for the needs of this distinctive demographic including substance abuse treatment services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native people can work with elders and stakeholders working in mental health services for their tribe or region to figure out which services are available to them through which rehab facilities, and which ones will best suit their needs. There have been many grants approved in recent years to cover these types of treatment services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effective recovery programs which provide evidence based treatment that also incorporates culturally sensitive rehab services including those in their language which are provided by bi-lingual staff members.
