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. Conversely, 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 addiction treatment admissions show up to rehab as criminal justice clients, which means they have very likely agreed to a court ordered diversion program to go to treatment in lieu of jail time. So as one can see, there is an absolute need for different types of treatment programs to cover all of the very unique needs of this client demographic, including addiction rehabilitation services in native languages.
One of the challenges that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Wentworth face is access to comprehensive and effective rehab programs, especially those who reside in rural locations. Facilities offering addiction treatment services in rural regions may not be capable of offering strategic planning designed to meet the needs and demands of this unique demographic including substance abuse treatment services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native individuals can work with elders and stakeholders involved in mental health services for their region or tribe to figure out which services are available to them and through which rehab facilities, and which will best suit their needs. There have been numerous grants sanctioned in recent years to cover these types of rehab services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effective treatment programs which provide evidence based treatment that also integrates culturally sensitive recovery services including those in their language which are performed by bi-lingual staff members.
