American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to be in need to rehabilitation for drug and alcohol abuse and addiction. Reversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are also more prone to seek treatment on their own will more than other racial/ethnic groups. Roughly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native substance abuse treatment admissions arrive to treatment as criminal justice clients, which means they have most likely agreed to a court ordered diversion program to receive treatment in lieu of jail time. So as you can see, there is an absolute need for a variety of service types to cover all of the very unique needs of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including addiction treatment programs in native languages.
One of the challenges that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Waldorf face is access to comprehensive treatment facilities, particularly those who live in rural locations. Programs providing substance abuse rehabilitation services in rural regions may not be set up to provide support designed to meet the needs of this special group of people including addiction treatment services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native clients can consult with elders and stakeholders involved in mental health services for their tribe or region to determine which types of treatment services are an option for them through which treatment facilities, and which will be most effective for their scenario. There have been numerous grants sanctioned in recent years to cover these types of rehab services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effectively established treatment programs which offer evidence based treatment that also incorporates culturally sensitive treatment services delivered in their language which are performed by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
