American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to be in need to recovery services for drug and alcohol abuse and addiction. On the Contrary, 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 most likely accepted a diversion option to go to treatment in lieu of jail time. So therefore, there is a definite need for a variety of service types to cover all of the various needs of this client demographic, including substance abuse treatment services in native languages.
One of the problems that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Hawthorne face is access to comprehensive and effective treatment facilities, especially those who reside in rural areas. Facilities offering substance abuse rehabilitation services in rural areas commonly 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 clients can work with stakeholders and elders involved in mental health services for their tribe or region to determine which services are an option for them and through which treatment facilities, and which will best suit their needs. There have been numerous grants approved in recent years to cover these types of rehab services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effective treatment 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.
