American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to need recovery services for drug and alcohol abuse and addiction. On the Contrary, American Indians and Alaska Natives are also more prone to feel the need to seek treatment than other racial/ethnic groups. Almost 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native drug and alcohol treatment admissions arrive to rehab as criminal justice clients, which means they have most likely agreed to a diversion option to go to treatment instead of jail time. So as one can see, there is a definite need for a variety of service types to provide services for all of the various requirements of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including substance abuse treatment programs in native languages.
One of the barriers that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Hertford face is access to effective rehab programs, especially those who live in rural regions. Programs offering substance abuse rehab services in rural areas often are not able to offer support designed to meet the needs of this special group of people including substance abuse rehabilitation services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native people can work with elders and stakeholders involved in mental health services for their tribe or region to find out which services are an option for them through which facilities, and which ones will best suit their needs. There have been numerous grants approved in recent years to cover these types of treatment services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effectively established recovery programs which provide evidence based treatment that also encompasses culturally sensitive recovery services delivered in their language which are performed by bi-lingual staff members.
