American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to need rehabilitation for drug and alcohol abuse and addiction. Reversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are more prone to feel the need to seek treatment than other racial/ethnic groups. Nearly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native addiction treatment admissions show up to treatment as criminal justice clients, meaning they have most likely accepted a court ordered diversion program to receive rehab in lieu of jail time. So as one can see, there is an absolute need for different types of treatment programs to provide services for all of the very unique needs of this client demographic, including addiction treatment services in native languages.
One of the barriers that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Pompton Lakes face is access to comprehensive and effective rehab programs, especially those who live in rural locations. Programs offering addiction treatment services in rural regions often are not set up to provide strategic planning intended for the needs and demands of this unique demographic including addiction rehabilitation services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native clients can work with stakeholders and elders involved in mental health services for their region or tribe to determine which types of treatment services are available to them and through which treatment facilities, and which will best suit their needs. There have been many grants offered in recent years to cover these types of treatment services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effectively established recovery programs which provide evidence based treatment that also encompasses culturally sensitive treatment services delivered in their language which are performed by bi-lingual staff members.
