American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to be in need to rehabilitation for substance abuse and addiction. Reversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are more likely to feel the need to seek treatment than other racial/ethnic groups. Nearly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native substance abuse treatment admissions arrive to rehab as criminal justice clients, meaning they have most likely accepted a diversion option to receive treatment instead of jail times for their charges. So as you can see, there is definitely a need for different types of treatment programs to provide services for all of the very unique requirements of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including addiction rehabilitation programs in native languages.
One of the challenges that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Chaska face is access to comprehensive services, especially those who reside in secluded areas. Facilities providing addiction rehabilitation services in rural regions often are not capable of offering strategic planning aimed at meeting the needs of this unique demographic including addiction rehabilitation services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native clients can work with elders and stakeholders working in mental health services for their tribe or region to determine which types of treatment services are available to them through which facilities, and which ones will work best for their particular situation. There have been numerous grants approved in recent years to cover these types of treatment services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effectively established programs which provide evidence based treatment that also encompasses culturally sensitive treatment services including those in their language which are provided by bi-lingual staff members.
