American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to need rehabilitation for substance abuse and addiction. Reversely, 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 very likely accepted a diversion option to go to treatment in lieu of jail times for their charges. So therefore, there is an absolute need for a variety of service types to cover all of the various needs of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including addiction treatment programs in native languages.
One of the challenges that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Hackettstown face is access to comprehensive and effective services, especially those who live in rural areas. Programs providing addiction rehab services in rural areas commonly are not set up to provide strategic planning designed to meet the needs and demands of this special demographic including substance abuse treatment services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native clients can consult with stakeholders and elders working in mental health services for their tribe or region to determine which services are available to them and through which treatment 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 rehab services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effectively established programs which provide evidence based treatment that also incorporates culturally sensitive rehab services including those in their language which are performed by bi-lingual staff members.
