American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to need recovery services for drug and alcohol 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. Nearly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native drug and alcohol treatment admissions arrive to rehab as criminal justice clients, which means 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 a definite need for different types of treatment programs to provide services for all of the various requirements of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including addiction treatment services in native languages.
One of the problems that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Elka Park face is access to comprehensive services, especially those who live in rural areas. Facilities providing substance abuse rehabilitation services in rural areas often are not capable of offering strategic planning intended for the needs of this special demographic including addiction rehabilitation services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native individuals can consult with elders and stakeholders involved in mental health services for their tribe or region to find out which types of treatment services are available to them through which facilities, and which will best suit their needs. There have been many grants approved in recent years to cover these types of 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 delivered in their language which are provided by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
