American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to be in need to treatment for substance abuse and addiction. Reversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are more likely to seek treatment on their own will more than other racial/ethnic groups. Roughly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native substance abuse treatment admissions show up to treatment as criminal justice clients, meaning they have very likely accepted a diversion option to go to rehab in lieu of jail time. So as one 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 programs in native languages.
One of the barriers that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Fillmore face is access to effective services, especially those who reside in rural regions. Programs offering drug and alcohol treatment services in rural areas commonly are not able to offer strategic planning aimed at meeting the needs of this unique group of people including substance abuse rehabilitation services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native individuals can work with stakeholders and elders working in mental health services for their region or tribe to find out which treatment services are an option for them and through which treatment facilities, and which ones will be most effective for their scenario. There have been many grants approved in recent years to help pay for these types of rehab services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effective recovery programs which provide evidence based treatment that also integrates culturally sensitive treatment services including those in their language which are performed by bi-lingual staff members.
