American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to require treatment for drug and alcohol abuse and addiction. Conversely, 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 drug and alcohol treatment admissions show up to treatment as criminal justice clients, which means they have most likely accepted a diversion option to go to rehab instead of jail times for their charges. So therefore, there is a definite need for a variety of service types to provide services for all of the various needs of this client demographic, including substance abuse treatment services in native languages.
One of the challenges that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Glyndon face is access to comprehensive and effective treatment facilities, particularly those who live in rural areas. Programs offering substance abuse rehabilitation services in rural areas may not be capable of offering support intended for the needs of this unique demographic including addiction treatment services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native individuals can work with elders and stakeholders working in mental health services for their tribe or region to find out which services are an option for them and through which facilities, and which ones will best suit their needs. There have been many grants offered in recent years to cover these types of rehab services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effectively established recovery programs which provide evidence based treatment that also incorporates culturally sensitive rehab services including those in their language which are performed by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
