American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to need recovery services for drug and alcohol abuse and addiction. Conversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are also more likely to seek treatment on their own will more than other racial/ethnic groups. Almost 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native addiction treatment admissions arrive to treatment as criminal justice clients, which means they have most likely agreed to a diversion option to receive treatment in lieu of jail times for their charges. So therefore, there is a definite need for different types of treatment programs to cover all of the very unique requirements of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including substance abuse treatment programs in native languages.
One of the barriers that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Moscow face is access to effective rehab programs, particularly those who live in secluded locations. Facilities providing drug and alcohol rehabilitation services in rural regions may not be able to offer support intended for the needs of this distinctive demographic including addiction rehabilitation services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native people can work with elders and stakeholders working in mental health services for their region or tribe to find out which services are available to them and through which facilities, and which will best suit their needs. There have been many grants offered in recent years to cover these types of services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effective programs which provide evidence based treatment that also encompasses culturally sensitive rehab services including those in their language which are provided by bi-lingual staff members.
