American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to need rehabilitation for substance 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 substance abuse treatment admissions arrive to treatment as criminal justice clients, which means they have very likely agreed to a diversion option to receive treatment in lieu of jail time. So as you can see, there is a definite need for different types of treatment programs to provide services for all of the various requirements of this client demographic, including substance abuse treatment services in native languages.
One of the problems that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Macatawa face is access to effective rehab programs, particularly those who reside in secluded regions. Programs providing drug and alcohol rehab services in rural regions may not be capable of offering support aimed at meeting the needs and demands of this special demographic including addiction treatment services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native clients can consult with elders and stakeholders working in mental health services for their tribe or region to determine which treatment services are available to them through which rehab facilities, and which will be most effective for their scenario. There have been numerous grants sanctioned in recent years to cover these types of services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effective treatment programs which offer evidence based treatment that also incorporates culturally sensitive recovery services including those in their language which are provided by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
