American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to require recovery services for drug and alcohol abuse and addiction. Conversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are more prone to seek treatment on their own will more than other racial/ethnic groups. Almost 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native addiction treatment admissions arrive to treatment as criminal justice clients, which means they have very likely accepted a court ordered diversion program to receive treatment instead of jail time. So therefore, there is an absolute need for a variety of service types to cover all of the very unique requirements of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including addiction treatment services in native languages.
One of the challenges that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Chatfield face is access to effective rehab programs, particularly those who live in rural regions. Programs offering drug and alcohol rehabilitation services in rural regions commonly are not set up to provide strategic planning aimed at meeting the needs of this special demographic including substance abuse treatment services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native clients can consult with elders and stakeholders involved in mental health services for their region or tribe to determine which treatment services are available to them through which treatment facilities, and which will best suit their needs. There have been many grants approved in recent years to cover these types of rehab services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effective programs which provide evidence based treatment that also encompasses culturally sensitive rehab services delivered in their language which are performed by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
