American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to need rehabilitation for drug and alcohol abuse and addiction. On the Contrary, American Indians and Alaska Natives are more prone to feel the need to seek treatment than other racial/ethnic groups. Roughly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native drug and alcohol 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 time. So as you can see, there is a definite need for different types of treatment programs to provide services for all of the various needs of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including addiction treatment programs in native languages.
One of the problems that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Wood Lake face is access to comprehensive services, especially those who live in secluded locations. Facilities offering drug and alcohol treatment services in rural areas often are not set up to provide strategic planning designed to meet the needs of this unique group of people including addiction treatment services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native people can work with elders and stakeholders involved in mental health services for their region or tribe to determine which treatment services are an option for them through which facilities, and which ones will work best for their particular situation. There have been many grants sanctioned in recent years to help pay for 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 encompasses culturally sensitive rehab services including those in their language which are provided by bi-lingual staff members.
