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 drug and alcohol abuse and addiction. Conversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are also more likely to feel the need to seek treatment than other racial/ethnic groups. Almost 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native addiction treatment admissions arrive to treatment as criminal justice clients, meaning they have most likely accepted a court ordered diversion program to go to rehab instead of jail time. So as you can see, 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 addiction treatment programs in native languages.
One of the barriers that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Pequot Lakes face is access to comprehensive and effective rehab programs, especially those who reside in rural locations. Programs offering substance abuse treatment services in rural regions may not be able to offer strategic planning aimed at meeting the needs of this distinctive group of people including addiction treatment services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native individuals can work with stakeholders and elders involved in mental health services for their tribe or region to figure out which services are an option for them through which facilities, and which will work best for their particular situation. There have been numerous grants approved in recent years to cover these types of rehab services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effectively established programs which offer evidence based treatment that also incorporates culturally sensitive recovery services delivered in their language which are performed by bi-lingual staff members.
