American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to be in need to treatment for substance abuse and addiction. On the Contrary, American Indians and Alaska Natives are also more likely to seek treatment on their own will more than other racial/ethnic groups. Nearly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native drug and alcohol treatment admissions show up to rehab as criminal justice clients, meaning they have very likely agreed to a court ordered diversion program to go to treatment instead of jail time. So as you can see, there is an absolute need for different types of treatment programs to cover all of the very unique requirements of this client demographic, including substance abuse treatment services in native languages.
One of the problems that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Port Austin face is access to effective rehab programs, particularly those who reside in secluded regions. Facilities offering drug and alcohol treatment services in rural areas may not be set up to provide strategic planning aimed at meeting the needs and demands of this distinctive demographic including substance abuse rehabilitation services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native people can work with stakeholders and elders working in mental health services for their tribe or region to determine which services are available to them and through which facilities, and which will best suit their needs. There have been numerous grants approved in recent years to help pay for these types of rehab 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 performed by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
