American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to require treatment for substance abuse and addiction. Conversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are more likely to feel the need to seek treatment than other racial/ethnic groups. Nearly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native substance abuse treatment admissions show up to rehab as criminal justice clients, which means they have most likely accepted a diversion option to receive rehab instead of jail time. So as one can see, there is definitely a need for a variety of service types to cover all of the very unique requirements 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 Carney face is access to effective treatment facilities, especially those who live in secluded regions. Programs offering substance abuse rehabilitation services in rural regions often are not able to offer support designed to meet the needs of this special group of people including substance abuse treatment services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native people can work with stakeholders and elders involved in mental health services for their region or tribe to determine which services are available to them and through which rehab facilities, and which ones will best suit their needs. There have been numerous grants offered in recent years to help pay for these types of treatment services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effectively established programs which offer evidence based treatment that also integrates culturally sensitive treatment services delivered in their language which are performed by bi-lingual staff members.
