American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to need rehabilitation for drug and alcohol abuse and addiction. Reversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are also more prone to feel the need to seek treatment than other racial/ethnic groups. Roughly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native addiction treatment admissions show up to treatment as criminal justice clients, which means they have very likely agreed to a court ordered diversion program to receive rehab in lieu of jail times for their charges. So as one can see, there is an absolute need for different types of treatment programs to provide services for all of the very unique needs of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including substance abuse treatment services in native languages.
One of the barriers that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Shawboro face is access to comprehensive and effective services, especially those who reside in rural regions. Programs providing substance abuse rehab services in rural regions often are not set up to provide support aimed at meeting the needs of this unique demographic including substance abuse treatment services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native clients can work with elders and stakeholders involved in mental health services for their tribe or region to find out which treatment services are available to them and through which rehab facilities, and which ones will be most effective for their scenario. There have been numerous grants offered in recent years to help pay for these types of services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effective recovery 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.
