American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to require treatment for substance 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. Roughly 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 rehab in lieu of jail time. So as you can see, there is an absolute need for different types of treatment programs to cover all of the various needs of this client demographic, including addiction treatment services in native languages.
One of the challenges that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Irvington face is access to effective services, particularly those who live in secluded locations. Programs providing addiction treatment services in rural areas may not be set up to provide support designed to meet the needs of this distinctive group of people including addiction treatment services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native people can consult with elders and stakeholders involved in mental health services for their tribe or region to figure out which treatment services are an option for them through which treatment facilities, and which will be most effective for their scenario. 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 effective programs which offer evidence based treatment that also incorporates culturally sensitive treatment services delivered in their language which are provided by bi-lingual staff members.
