American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to require rehabilitation for drug and alcohol abuse and addiction. Conversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are also more prone to feel the need to seek treatment than other racial/ethnic groups. Nearly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native addiction treatment admissions show up to rehab as criminal justice clients, which means they have very likely accepted a diversion option to receive rehab in lieu of jail times for their charges. So as you can see, there is an absolute need for different types of treatment programs to provide services for all of the various requirements of this client demographic, including substance abuse treatment programs in native languages.
One of the challenges that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Oxford face is access to comprehensive services, particularly those who live in secluded areas. Programs providing addiction treatment services in rural regions may not be able to offer support intended for the needs of this unique group of people including addiction treatment services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native people can consult with elders and stakeholders involved in mental health services for their region or tribe to figure out which services are available to them through which facilities, and which ones will best suit their needs. There have been numerous grants approved in recent years to cover these types of rehab services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effectively established recovery programs which offer evidence based treatment that also integrates culturally sensitive rehab services delivered in their language which are provided by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
