American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to be in need to treatment 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. Roughly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native addiction treatment admissions arrive to treatment as criminal justice clients, meaning they have most likely agreed to a court ordered diversion program to receive treatment in lieu of jail times for their charges. So therefore, there is a definite need for a variety of service types to cover all of the various requirements of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including addiction treatment programs in native languages.
One of the barriers that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Nakina face is access to effective treatment facilities, especially those who live in secluded regions. Programs providing drug and alcohol treatment services in rural areas commonly are not capable of offering strategic planning designed to meet the needs and demands of this special demographic including addiction rehabilitation services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native people can consult with stakeholders and elders involved in mental health services for their tribe or region to find out which types of treatment services are available to them through which rehab facilities, and which ones will be most effective for their scenario. There have been numerous grants approved in recent years to help pay for these types of services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effectively established treatment programs which provide evidence based treatment that also incorporates culturally sensitive recovery services including those in their language which are provided by bi-lingual staff members.
