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. Reversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are more likely to seek treatment on their own will more than other racial/ethnic groups. Nearly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native substance abuse treatment admissions arrive to treatment as criminal justice clients, meaning they have very likely accepted a diversion option to receive rehab instead of jail times for their charges. So as one can see, there is definitely a need for different types of treatment programs to cover all of the various needs of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including addiction rehabilitation programs in native languages.
One of the barriers that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Minneota face is access to comprehensive services, particularly those who reside in rural locations. Programs offering drug and alcohol rehab services in rural regions may not be able to offer strategic planning designed to meet the needs of this special demographic including addiction rehabilitation services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native individuals can consult with stakeholders and elders involved in mental health services for their tribe or region to figure out which treatment services are an option for them and through which treatment facilities, and which will be most effective for their scenario. There have been many grants offered in recent years to cover these types of rehab services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effectively established recovery programs which offer evidence based treatment that also integrates culturally sensitive recovery services including those in their language which are provided by bi-lingual staff members.
