American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to require 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. Nearly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native addiction treatment admissions arrive to treatment as criminal justice clients, meaning they have very likely accepted a court ordered diversion program to go to treatment instead of jail times for their charges. So as one can see, there is a definite need for different types of treatment programs to cover all of the various needs of this client demographic, including substance abuse treatment programs in native languages.
One of the barriers that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Gladstone face is access to effective rehab programs, particularly those who reside in rural regions. Programs providing addiction rehab services in rural regions may not be set up to provide support aimed at meeting the needs of this distinctive demographic including substance abuse treatment services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native clients can work with elders and stakeholders involved in mental health services for their region or tribe to determine which types of treatment services are available to them and through which rehab facilities, and which will be most effective for their scenario. There have been numerous grants offered in recent years to cover these types of rehab services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effectively established treatment programs which offer evidence based treatment that also integrates culturally sensitive recovery services delivered in their language which are provided by bi-lingual staff members.
