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 drug and alcohol abuse and addiction. Conversely, 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 drug and alcohol treatment admissions show up to rehab as criminal justice clients, which means they have most likely accepted a court ordered diversion program to go to treatment in lieu of jail times for their charges. So as one can see, there is a definite need for a variety of service types to cover all of the various requirements of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including addiction rehabilitation services in native languages.
One of the barriers that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Southport face is access to effective rehab programs, particularly those who reside in rural regions. Programs providing substance abuse rehab services in rural areas may not be able to offer strategic planning aimed at meeting the needs of this special demographic including addiction treatment services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native individuals can work with stakeholders and elders involved in mental health services for their region or tribe to figure out which treatment services are an option for them and through which treatment facilities, and which ones will work best for their particular situation. There have been many grants offered in recent years to help pay for these types of services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effectively established programs which offer evidence based treatment that also integrates culturally sensitive treatment services including those in their language which are performed by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
