American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to require recovery services 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. Roughly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native addiction treatment admissions arrive to rehab as criminal justice clients, which means they have most likely agreed to a court ordered diversion program to go to treatment in lieu of jail times for their charges. 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 needs of this client demographic, including substance abuse treatment programs in native languages.
One of the barriers that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Fairfield face is access to comprehensive treatment facilities, particularly those who live in secluded regions. Programs providing substance abuse treatment services in rural regions commonly are not capable of offering support designed to meet the needs of this unique demographic including substance abuse treatment services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native clients can work with stakeholders and elders involved in mental health services for their tribe or region to figure out which types of treatment services are available to them and 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 services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effectively established treatment programs which provide evidence based treatment that also encompasses culturally sensitive treatment services including those in their language which are performed by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
