American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to require treatment for drug and alcohol abuse and addiction. On the Contrary, 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 addiction treatment admissions show up to treatment as criminal justice clients, which means they have most likely accepted a diversion option to go to treatment in lieu of jail times for their charges. So therefore, there is an absolute need for different types of treatment programs to cover all of the very unique requirements of this client demographic, including addiction rehabilitation programs in native languages.
One of the barriers that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Van Buren face is access to comprehensive and effective rehab programs, especially those who live in rural regions. Programs providing addiction treatment services in rural regions may not be able to offer support designed to meet the needs of this distinctive group of people including substance abuse rehabilitation services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native people can work with stakeholders and elders working in mental health services for their tribe or region to determine which treatment services are available to them through which rehab facilities, and which ones will work best for their particular situation. There have been numerous grants approved in recent years to help pay for 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 delivered in their language which are provided by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
