American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to be in need to treatment for substance 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, meaning they have most likely agreed to a diversion option to receive rehab in lieu of jail time. So as one can see, there is definitely a need for a variety of service types to provide services for all of the very unique requirements of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including addiction treatment programs in native languages.
One of the challenges that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Snow Hill face is access to effective treatment facilities, especially those who live in rural locations. Facilities providing substance abuse rehab services in rural areas often are not capable of offering strategic planning aimed at meeting the needs of this distinctive group of people including substance abuse rehabilitation services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native people can work with elders and stakeholders working in mental health services for their tribe or region to figure out which treatment services are an option for them and through which rehab facilities, and which ones will work best for their particular situation. There have been many grants sanctioned in recent years to help pay for these types of rehab services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effectively established treatment programs which provide evidence based treatment that also integrates culturally sensitive treatment services delivered in their language which are provided by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
