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 prone to feel the need to seek treatment than other racial/ethnic groups. Roughly 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 agreed to a court ordered diversion program to receive treatment in lieu of jail time. So therefore, there is an absolute need for a variety of service types to provide services for all of the various needs of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including addiction treatment programs in native languages.
One of the barriers that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Union Pier face is access to comprehensive and effective services, especially those who live in rural locations. Facilities offering drug and alcohol rehab services in rural regions may not be able to offer strategic planning designed to meet the needs and demands of this special 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 tribe or region to figure out which services are an option for them and through which treatment facilities, and which ones will best suit their needs. There have been many grants approved in recent years to cover these types of treatment services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effectively established treatment programs which provide evidence based treatment that also encompasses culturally sensitive treatment services delivered in their language which are performed by bi-lingual staff members.
