American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to need rehabilitation for substance 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. Nearly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native drug and alcohol treatment admissions show up to rehab as criminal justice clients, which means they have very likely accepted a diversion option to go to treatment instead of jail time. So as one can see, there is definitely a need for different types of treatment programs to cover all of the very unique needs of this client demographic, including addiction rehabilitation programs in native languages.
One of the barriers that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Hardwick face is access to comprehensive and effective treatment facilities, especially those who reside in secluded areas. Facilities offering drug and alcohol rehab services in rural regions commonly are not set up to provide support designed to meet the needs and demands of this special demographic including substance abuse rehabilitation services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native people can work with elders and stakeholders working in mental health services for their tribe or region to figure out which types of treatment services are available to them through which rehab facilities, and which ones will be most effective for their scenario. There have been many grants sanctioned in recent years to help pay for these types of treatment services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effectively established treatment programs which provide evidence based treatment that also incorporates culturally sensitive rehab services delivered in their language which are performed by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
