American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to need rehabilitation for drug and alcohol 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. Roughly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native substance abuse treatment admissions show up to rehab as criminal justice clients, meaning they have very likely agreed to a diversion option to go to treatment in lieu of jail time. So as one can see, there is a definite need for different types of treatment programs to provide services for all of the various needs of this client demographic, including substance abuse treatment programs in native languages.
One of the challenges that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Conger face is access to comprehensive and effective treatment facilities, especially those who live in rural areas. Facilities providing substance abuse rehab services in rural regions commonly are not able to offer strategic planning aimed at meeting the needs and demands of this unique demographic including addiction rehabilitation services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native individuals can consult with elders and stakeholders involved in mental health services for their tribe or region to find out which services are available to them through which treatment facilities, and which will best suit their needs. 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 recovery programs which offer evidence based treatment that also integrates culturally sensitive treatment services delivered in their language which are performed by bi-lingual staff members.
