American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to need treatment for substance abuse and addiction. Conversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are also more likely to seek treatment on their own will more than other racial/ethnic groups. Almost 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native substance abuse treatment admissions arrive to treatment as criminal justice clients, which means they have very likely agreed to a court ordered diversion program to go to rehab instead of jail time. So therefore, 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 West Yellowstone face is access to comprehensive and effective services, particularly those who live in rural areas. Programs providing substance abuse treatment services in rural regions may not be set up to provide support aimed at meeting the needs of this unique group of people including substance abuse rehabilitation services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native people can consult with elders and stakeholders working in mental health services for their region or tribe to determine which types of treatment services are an option for them and through which facilities, and which will work best for their particular situation. There have been numerous grants offered in recent years to cover these types of treatment services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effective treatment programs which offer evidence based treatment that also encompasses culturally sensitive rehab services including those in their language which are performed by bi-lingual staff members.
