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 seek treatment on their own will more than other racial/ethnic groups. Roughly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native drug and alcohol treatment admissions show up to treatment as criminal justice clients, meaning they have very likely accepted a diversion option to go to treatment in lieu of jail time. So as you can see, there is an absolute need for a variety of service types to provide services for all of the very unique needs of this client demographic, including addiction rehabilitation services in native languages.
One of the barriers that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Lansing face is access to effective services, especially those who live in secluded regions. Programs offering drug and alcohol treatment services in rural regions often are not set up to provide support aimed at meeting the needs of this special group of people including addiction treatment services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native people can work with elders and stakeholders involved in mental health services for their region or tribe to determine which services are available to them through which treatment facilities, and which will be most effective for their scenario. There have been many grants offered in recent years to cover these types of services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effectively established recovery programs which provide evidence based treatment that also encompasses culturally sensitive treatment services delivered in their language which are provided by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
