American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to need rehabilitation for substance abuse and addiction. Reversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are more likely to feel the need to seek treatment than other racial/ethnic groups. Almost 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native addiction treatment admissions show up to rehab as criminal justice clients, meaning they have very likely agreed to a diversion option to receive rehab instead of jail time. So therefore, there is a definite need for different types of treatment programs to provide services for all of the very unique requirements of this client demographic, including addiction treatment programs in native languages.
One of the challenges that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Emerald Isle face is access to comprehensive and effective treatment facilities, especially those who live in secluded areas. Facilities offering substance abuse rehab services in rural regions may not be set up to provide strategic planning intended for the needs and demands of this special demographic including substance abuse treatment services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native people can consult with stakeholders and elders involved in mental health services for their region or tribe to find out which treatment services are an option for them and through which treatment facilities, and which ones will best suit their needs. There have been numerous grants approved in recent years to cover these types of services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effectively established recovery programs which provide evidence based treatment that also integrates culturally sensitive treatment services delivered in their language which are performed by bi-lingual staff members.
