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 more likely 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, which means they have very likely agreed to a court ordered diversion program to go to rehab instead of jail times for their charges. So therefore, there is a definite need for different types of treatment programs to cover all of the very unique needs of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including substance abuse treatment services in native languages.
One of the challenges that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Frankfort face is access to comprehensive treatment facilities, especially those who live in rural locations. Programs offering addiction rehabilitation services in rural areas may not be capable of offering strategic planning designed to meet the needs of this unique group of people including substance abuse rehabilitation services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native clients can work with elders and stakeholders involved in mental health services for their tribe or region to figure out which services are available to them through which treatment facilities, and which will best suit their needs. There have been many grants sanctioned in recent years to cover these types of treatment services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effectively established treatment programs which offer evidence based treatment that also incorporates culturally sensitive recovery services delivered in their language which are performed by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
