American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to require recovery services for drug and alcohol abuse and addiction. On the Contrary, American Indians and Alaska Natives are also more likely to feel the need to seek treatment than other racial/ethnic groups. Nearly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native substance abuse treatment admissions show up to rehab as criminal justice clients, meaning they have very likely accepted a diversion option to go to rehab instead of jail time. So therefore, there is an absolute need for a variety of service types to provide services for all of the very unique needs of this client demographic, including addiction rehabilitation programs in native languages.
One of the barriers that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Mcintosh face is access to comprehensive services, especially those who reside in rural areas. Programs offering drug and alcohol rehabilitation services in rural areas commonly are not able to offer strategic planning designed to meet the needs and demands of this distinctive group of people including addiction treatment services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native clients can consult with stakeholders and elders involved in mental health services for their tribe or region to figure out which services are an option for them and through which facilities, and which will work best for their particular situation. There have been numerous grants offered in recent years to help pay for these types of treatment services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effectively established treatment programs which provide evidence based treatment that also incorporates culturally sensitive treatment services including those in their language which are provided by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
