American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to be in need to rehabilitation for substance abuse and addiction. Reversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are more likely to feel the need to seek treatment 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 agreed to a court ordered diversion program to go to rehab in lieu of jail time. So therefore, there is an absolute need for different types of treatment programs to provide services for all of the various needs of this client demographic, including addiction treatment programs in native languages.
One of the problems that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Stanhope face is access to effective services, particularly those who live in secluded areas. Facilities providing addiction treatment services in rural areas often are not able to offer support aimed at meeting the needs and demands of this unique demographic including substance abuse treatment services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native individuals can work with elders and stakeholders working in mental health services for their region or tribe to determine which treatment services are available to them through which treatment facilities, and which ones will be most effective for their scenario. There have been many grants approved in recent years to help pay for these types of rehab services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effectively established recovery programs which provide evidence based treatment that also encompasses culturally sensitive rehab services including those in their language which are provided by bi-lingual staff members.
