American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to need recovery services for drug and alcohol abuse and addiction. On the Contrary, 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 addiction treatment admissions arrive to rehab as criminal justice clients, meaning they have most likely agreed to a court ordered diversion program to go to rehab in lieu of jail time. So as you can see, there is an absolute need for a variety of service types to cover all of the very unique needs of this client demographic, including addiction rehabilitation services in native languages.
One of the problems that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Applegate face is access to comprehensive services, especially those who reside in secluded locations. Programs providing substance abuse treatment services in rural areas may not be able to offer support intended for the needs and demands of this unique demographic including addiction rehabilitation services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native individuals can work with elders and stakeholders involved in mental health services for their region or tribe to determine which treatment services are available to them through which facilities, and which will best suit their needs. There have been many grants approved in recent years to help pay for these types of rehab services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effective programs which provide evidence based treatment that also incorporates culturally sensitive treatment services including those in their language which are performed by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
