American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to be in need to rehabilitation for drug and alcohol abuse and addiction. Reversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are also more likely to seek treatment on their own will more than other racial/ethnic groups. Almost 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native drug and alcohol treatment admissions arrive to treatment as criminal justice clients, meaning they have most likely accepted a diversion option to receive treatment 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 American Indian or Alaska Natives, including substance abuse treatment services in native languages.
One of the barriers that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Lima face is access to effective services, especially those who live in secluded regions. Programs providing addiction rehab services in rural areas may not be set up to provide support aimed at meeting the needs of this special group of people including addiction treatment services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native clients can work with stakeholders and elders involved in mental health services for their region or tribe to figure out which services are available to them and through which rehab facilities, and which ones will best suit their needs. There have been numerous grants approved in recent years to help pay for these types of treatment services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effective treatment programs which offer evidence based treatment that also integrates culturally sensitive recovery services delivered in their language which are provided by bi-lingual staff members.
