American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to need recovery services for drug and alcohol abuse and addiction. Reversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are more prone to seek treatment on their own will more than other racial/ethnic groups. Nearly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native drug and alcohol treatment admissions arrive to treatment as criminal justice clients, meaning they have very likely accepted a court ordered diversion program to receive treatment instead of jail time. So as you can see, there is definitely a need for different types of treatment programs to provide services for all of the very unique requirements of this client demographic, including addiction treatment programs in native languages.
One of the problems that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Boothbay Harbor face is access to comprehensive rehab programs, particularly those who reside in secluded areas. Programs providing addiction rehab services in rural areas often are not capable of offering strategic planning designed to meet the needs and demands of this special demographic including substance abuse treatment services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native individuals can consult 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 be most effective for their scenario. There have been numerous grants approved in recent years to help pay for these types of treatment services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effectively established treatment programs which offer evidence based treatment that also incorporates culturally sensitive recovery services including those in their language which are provided by bi-lingual staff members.
