American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to need treatment for drug and alcohol abuse and addiction. Conversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are more likely to seek treatment on their own will more than other racial/ethnic groups. Almost 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native substance abuse treatment admissions show up to rehab as criminal justice clients, which means they have very likely accepted a court ordered diversion program to go to rehab in lieu of jail times for their charges. 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 this client demographic, including addiction rehabilitation services in native languages.
One of the challenges that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Avenel face is access to effective services, particularly those who reside in secluded locations. Facilities offering addiction treatment services in rural areas often are not set up to provide support designed to meet the needs and demands of this unique group of people including addiction treatment services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native people can work with stakeholders and elders involved in mental health services for their tribe or region to determine which treatment services are available to them through which rehab facilities, and which ones will be most effective for their scenario. There have been many grants approved in recent years to cover these types of treatment services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effective treatment programs which provide evidence based treatment that also encompasses culturally sensitive rehab services including those in their language which are provided by bi-lingual staff members.
