American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to require rehabilitation for substance abuse and addiction. Conversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are also more prone to feel the need to seek treatment than other racial/ethnic groups. Roughly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native substance abuse treatment admissions arrive to treatment as criminal justice clients, meaning they have very likely agreed to a diversion option to go to treatment instead of jail times for their charges. So as one can see, there is a definite need for different types of treatment programs to cover all of the very unique requirements of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including addiction treatment services in native languages.
One of the challenges that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Mesilla face is access to comprehensive and effective rehab programs, especially those who reside in rural regions. Facilities providing addiction rehabilitation services in rural areas often are not set up to provide support aimed at meeting the needs of this special group of people including substance abuse rehabilitation 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 types of treatment services are available to them and through which facilities, and which will be most effective for their scenario. There have been many grants sanctioned in recent years to help pay for these types of services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effectively established treatment programs which offer evidence based treatment that also incorporates culturally sensitive recovery services including those in their language which are performed by bi-lingual staff members.
