American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to be in need to recovery services for drug and alcohol abuse and addiction. Reversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are also more likely to feel the need to seek treatment than other racial/ethnic groups. Roughly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native addiction treatment admissions arrive to treatment as criminal justice clients, meaning they have most likely accepted a court ordered diversion program to go to treatment in lieu of jail times for their charges. So as one can see, there is a definite need for different types of treatment programs to provide services for all of the very unique needs of this client demographic, including substance abuse treatment programs in native languages.
One of the barriers that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Hart face is access to comprehensive treatment facilities, particularly those who live in secluded locations. Programs providing drug and alcohol treatment services in rural regions commonly are not capable of offering support intended for the needs of this special demographic including addiction rehabilitation services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native individuals can work with stakeholders and elders involved in mental health services for their tribe or region to find out which treatment services are an option for them and through which facilities, and which ones will best suit their needs. There have been many grants approved in recent years to help pay for these types of treatment services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effectively established programs which offer evidence based treatment that also incorporates culturally sensitive rehab services including those in their language which are provided by bi-lingual staff members.
