American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to need recovery services for substance abuse and addiction. On the Contrary, American Indians and Alaska Natives are more likely to feel the need to seek treatment than other racial/ethnic groups. Almost 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native drug and alcohol treatment admissions show up to rehab as criminal justice clients, which means they have most likely accepted a diversion option to receive rehab in lieu of jail time. So as one can see, there is a definite need for a variety of service types to cover all of the very unique needs of this client demographic, including substance abuse treatment services in native languages.
One of the challenges that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Vanderwagen face is access to comprehensive services, particularly those who reside in secluded regions. Programs offering substance abuse rehabilitation services in rural areas commonly are not able to offer strategic planning designed to meet the needs and demands of this special group of people including addiction rehabilitation services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native people can work with stakeholders and elders 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 numerous grants approved in recent years to cover these types of services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effectively established treatment programs which provide evidence based treatment that also incorporates culturally sensitive rehab services including those in their language which are performed by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
