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. Reversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are more likely to feel the need to seek treatment 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, which means they have very likely accepted a court ordered diversion program to receive rehab instead of jail times for their charges. So as one can see, there is a definite need for a variety of service types to cover all of the very unique needs of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including addiction rehabilitation services in native languages.
One of the barriers that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Donnelly face is access to comprehensive services, especially those who live in secluded regions. Programs offering addiction treatment services in rural regions may not be set up to provide strategic planning aimed at meeting the needs of this special group of people 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 region or tribe to determine which treatment services are an option for them through which treatment facilities, and which 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, that have very effectively established programs which offer evidence based treatment that also encompasses culturally sensitive treatment services delivered in their language which are provided by bi-lingual staff members.
