American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to require treatment 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. Roughly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native addiction treatment admissions show up to rehab as criminal justice clients, meaning they have very likely agreed to a court ordered diversion program to go to treatment in lieu of jail time. So as you can see, there is an absolute need for a variety of service types to provide services for all of the very unique needs of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including substance abuse treatment services in native languages.
One of the barriers that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Yeso face is access to comprehensive treatment facilities, particularly those who reside in rural areas. Facilities providing substance abuse treatment services in rural areas often are not set up to provide support designed to meet the needs and demands of this unique demographic including addiction rehabilitation services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native clients can consult with elders and stakeholders involved in mental health services for their tribe or region to figure out which services are an option for them and through which rehab facilities, and which will be most effective for their scenario. There have been numerous grants approved in recent years to cover these types of rehab services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effectively established recovery programs which offer evidence based treatment that also encompasses culturally sensitive rehab services including those in their language which are performed by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
