American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to be in need to treatment for substance abuse and addiction. Reversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are also more likely to feel the need to seek treatment than other racial/ethnic groups. Almost 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native substance abuse treatment admissions show up to treatment as criminal justice clients, which means they have most likely accepted a court ordered diversion program to receive rehab instead of jail times for their charges. So as you can see, there is a definite need for different types of treatment programs to cover all of the various requirements of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including substance abuse treatment programs in native languages.
One of the problems that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Cleveland face is access to comprehensive rehab programs, particularly those who reside in secluded locations. Facilities offering substance abuse rehab services in rural regions commonly are not set up to provide support designed to meet the needs and demands of this special demographic including substance abuse rehabilitation services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native people can consult with stakeholders and elders working in mental health services for their tribe or region to figure out which types of treatment services are available to them and through which rehab facilities, and which will best suit their needs. There have been numerous grants offered in recent years to cover these types of treatment services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effectively established treatment programs which offer evidence based treatment that also incorporates culturally sensitive rehab services including those in their language which are provided by bi-lingual staff members.
