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. Reversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are more prone to seek treatment on their own will more than other racial/ethnic groups. Almost 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native addiction treatment admissions show up to treatment as criminal justice clients, which means they have most likely agreed to a diversion option to go to rehab instead of jail times for their charges. So therefore, there is a definite need for a variety of service types to provide services for all of the various requirements of this client demographic, including addiction treatment services in native languages.
One of the challenges that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Gouverneur face is access to comprehensive and effective rehab programs, particularly those who reside in secluded locations. Programs providing substance abuse rehabilitation services in rural regions commonly are not set up to provide support designed to meet the needs and demands of this unique demographic including substance abuse treatment services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native individuals can work with stakeholders and elders involved in mental health services for their tribe or region to determine which services are available to them and through which rehab facilities, and which ones will be most effective for their scenario. There have been many grants offered 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 treatment services delivered in their language which are performed by bi-lingual staff members.
