American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to need treatment for substance 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 drug and alcohol treatment admissions show up to treatment as criminal justice clients, meaning they have very likely accepted a diversion option to receive treatment instead of jail time. So therefore, there is an absolute need for different types of treatment programs to cover all of the various requirements of this client demographic, including addiction rehabilitation programs in native languages.
One of the problems that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Beaver Bay face is access to comprehensive and effective treatment facilities, especially those who live in rural regions. Facilities providing drug and alcohol rehab services in rural regions may not be capable of offering support aimed at meeting the needs of this special demographic including substance abuse rehabilitation services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native individuals can work with stakeholders and elders working in mental health services for their tribe or region to determine which services are available to them through which treatment facilities, and which ones will best suit their needs. There have been numerous grants sanctioned in recent years to cover these types of rehab services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effectively established programs which provide evidence based treatment that also integrates culturally sensitive treatment services including those in their language which are provided by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
