American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to be in need to recovery services for substance abuse and addiction. Conversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are more likely to feel the need to seek treatment than other racial/ethnic groups. Roughly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native substance abuse treatment admissions arrive to rehab as criminal justice clients, meaning they have most likely agreed to a diversion option to receive treatment in lieu of jail time. So as one can see, 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 substance abuse treatment programs in native languages.
One of the challenges that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Courtland face is access to comprehensive and effective treatment facilities, particularly those who live in rural locations. Programs offering addiction rehabilitation services in rural areas may not be set up to provide support intended for the needs and demands of this unique demographic including substance abuse treatment services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native clients can work with elders and stakeholders working in mental health services for their region or tribe to determine which services are available to them through which rehab facilities, and which will be most effective for their scenario. There have been many grants approved in recent years to cover these types of treatment services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effective treatment programs which provide evidence based treatment that also encompasses culturally sensitive treatment services delivered in their language which are provided by bi-lingual staff members.
