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. On the Contrary, American Indians and Alaska Natives are also more likely to feel the need to seek treatment than other racial/ethnic groups. Nearly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native substance abuse treatment admissions show up to treatment as criminal justice clients, meaning they have very likely accepted a diversion option to go to rehab in lieu of jail time. So as one can see, there is definitely a need for different types of treatment programs to cover all of the various requirements of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including substance abuse treatment programs in native languages.
One of the problems that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Falmouth face is access to effective treatment facilities, especially those who reside in rural locations. Programs providing substance abuse treatment services in rural regions commonly are not capable of offering support designed to meet the needs and demands of this special demographic including addiction treatment services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native clients can work with stakeholders and elders involved in mental health services for their region or tribe to determine which types of treatment services are available to them and through which treatment facilities, and which will best suit their needs. There have been numerous grants sanctioned in recent years to cover these types of rehab services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effectively established treatment programs which provide evidence based treatment that also encompasses culturally sensitive recovery services including those in their language which are performed by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
