American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to need recovery services for substance abuse and addiction. On the Contrary, 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 drug and alcohol treatment admissions show up to treatment as criminal justice clients, meaning they have most likely agreed to a court ordered diversion program to receive rehab instead of jail times for their charges. So as you can see, there is an absolute need for a variety of service types to provide services for all of the very unique needs of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including addiction treatment services in native languages.
One of the barriers that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Great Meadows face is access to effective rehab programs, particularly those who live in secluded regions. Facilities providing addiction rehab services in rural areas commonly are not able to offer strategic planning intended for the needs of this special demographic including addiction treatment services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native individuals can work with stakeholders and elders involved in mental health services for their region or tribe 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 offered in recent years to help pay for these types of services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effective treatment programs which provide evidence based treatment that also encompasses culturally sensitive rehab services delivered in their language which are provided by bi-lingual staff members.
