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 more likely to feel the need to seek treatment than other racial/ethnic groups. Almost 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native substance abuse treatment admissions show up to treatment as criminal justice clients, which means they have most likely accepted a court ordered diversion program to go to treatment instead of jail times for their charges. So therefore, there is definitely a need for different types of treatment programs to cover all of the various needs of this client demographic, including addiction rehabilitation services in native languages.
One of the problems that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Sodus face is access to effective services, particularly those who reside in secluded regions. Facilities providing addiction rehab services in rural areas commonly are not set up to provide strategic planning designed to meet the needs and demands of this unique demographic including addiction treatment services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native people can work with elders and stakeholders involved in mental health services for their region or tribe to figure out which treatment services are available to them through which treatment facilities, and which will work best for their particular situation. There have been numerous grants approved in recent years to help pay for these types of rehab services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effectively established programs which offer evidence based treatment that also integrates culturally sensitive rehab services including those in their language which are provided by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
