American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to need recovery services for substance 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. Almost 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native addiction treatment admissions show up to treatment as criminal justice clients, meaning they have most likely accepted a court ordered diversion program to go to rehab instead of jail time. So as you can see, 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 treatment programs in native languages.
One of the challenges that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Deford face is access to effective rehab programs, especially those who reside in secluded areas. Programs providing addiction treatment services in rural areas may not be set up to provide support aimed at meeting the needs and demands of this unique group of people including addiction rehabilitation services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native clients can consult with stakeholders and elders involved in mental health services for their tribe or region to figure out which treatment services are available to them through which treatment facilities, and which will work best for their particular situation. There have been many grants offered in recent years to cover 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 including those in their language which are performed by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
