American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to require rehabilitation for drug and alcohol abuse and addiction. Reversely, 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 substance abuse treatment admissions arrive to rehab as criminal justice clients, meaning they have very likely accepted a diversion option to receive treatment in lieu of jail times for their charges. So therefore, there is a definite need for different types of treatment programs to provide services for all of the very unique requirements of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including addiction rehabilitation programs in native languages.
One of the problems that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Neihart face is access to comprehensive and effective services, particularly those who live in rural areas. Programs offering addiction rehabilitation services in rural regions often are not set up to provide support aimed at meeting the needs of this unique group of people including addiction rehabilitation services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native people can work with stakeholders and elders working in mental health services for their region or tribe to find out which services are available to them through which facilities, and which will be most effective for their scenario. There have been many grants approved in recent years to help pay for these types of treatment services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effective recovery programs which provide evidence based treatment that also encompasses culturally sensitive treatment services delivered in their language which are provided by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
