American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to need treatment for substance abuse and addiction. Conversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are more likely to feel the need to seek treatment than other racial/ethnic groups. Nearly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native substance abuse treatment admissions show up to rehab as criminal justice clients, which means they have most likely accepted a court ordered diversion program to go to treatment in lieu of jail time. So as you can see, there is a definite need for different types of treatment programs to provide services for all of the various needs of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including substance abuse treatment services in native languages.
One of the challenges that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Brick face is access to comprehensive rehab programs, particularly those who live in rural regions. Programs providing addiction rehabilitation services in rural areas commonly are not capable of offering strategic planning aimed at meeting the needs and demands of this special demographic including addiction rehabilitation services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native clients can consult with stakeholders and elders involved in mental health services for their tribe or region to determine which services are available to them and through which facilities, and which ones will best suit their needs. There have been many grants approved in recent years to cover these types of services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effectively established programs which offer evidence based treatment that also integrates culturally sensitive recovery services delivered in their language which are provided by bi-lingual staff members.
