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. Almost 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native drug and alcohol treatment admissions show up to treatment as criminal justice clients, which means they have very likely accepted a court ordered diversion program to receive rehab in lieu of jail times for their charges. So as you can see, there is an absolute need for a variety of service types to cover all of the very unique needs of this client demographic, including addiction treatment programs in native languages.
One of the problems that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Omer face is access to comprehensive treatment facilities, especially those who reside in secluded areas. Programs providing substance abuse treatment services in rural areas commonly are not able to offer support aimed at meeting the needs and demands of this unique group of people including substance abuse treatment services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native clients can consult with elders and stakeholders involved in mental health services for their region or tribe to determine which treatment services are available to them through which rehab facilities, and which ones will work best for their particular situation. There have been many grants sanctioned in recent years to help pay for these types of rehab services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effectively established programs which offer evidence based treatment that also encompasses culturally sensitive recovery services delivered in their language which are provided by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
