American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to require treatment for substance 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. Nearly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native addiction treatment admissions arrive to rehab as criminal justice clients, meaning they have very likely agreed to a diversion option to receive rehab instead of jail time. So as one can see, there is definitely a need for a variety of service types to provide services for all of the very unique requirements of this client demographic, including addiction rehabilitation programs in native languages.
One of the problems that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Stephen face is access to comprehensive and effective treatment facilities, particularly those who live in secluded regions. Facilities providing drug and alcohol rehabilitation services in rural areas may not be capable of offering strategic planning designed to meet the needs of this special group of people including substance abuse treatment services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native clients can consult with elders and stakeholders working in mental health services for their region or tribe to determine which treatment services are available to them through which facilities, and which will be most effective for their scenario. There have been many grants sanctioned in recent years to cover these types of rehab services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effective programs which offer evidence based treatment that also encompasses culturally sensitive recovery services including those in their language which are provided by bi-lingual staff members.
