American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to require rehabilitation for drug and alcohol 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. Almost 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 court ordered diversion program to receive rehab instead of jail times for their charges. So therefore, there is an absolute need for different types of treatment programs to cover all of the very unique needs of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including substance abuse treatment services in native languages.
One of the challenges that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Nevis face is access to comprehensive rehab programs, particularly those who live in secluded areas. Programs offering substance abuse rehab services in rural regions often are not able to offer support aimed at meeting the needs of this unique group of people including addiction rehabilitation services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native individuals can consult with stakeholders and elders working in mental health services for their tribe or region to figure out which services are an option for them through which treatment facilities, and which will be most effective for their scenario. There have been many grants sanctioned in recent years to cover these types of treatment services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effectively established recovery programs which offer evidence based treatment that also encompasses culturally sensitive recovery services including those in their language which are performed by bi-lingual staff members.
