American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to require recovery services for substance abuse and addiction. Conversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are more likely to feel the need to seek treatment than other racial/ethnic groups. Nearly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native addiction treatment admissions show up to treatment as criminal justice clients, which means they have very likely agreed to a diversion option to receive rehab in lieu of jail times for their charges. So as one can see, there is an absolute need for different types of treatment programs to cover all of the very unique 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 Livingston face is access to comprehensive treatment facilities, especially those who reside in secluded regions. Facilities providing drug and alcohol rehabilitation services in rural areas may not be capable of offering support intended for the needs of this unique group of people including addiction treatment services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native clients can work with elders and stakeholders working in mental health services for their region or tribe to find out which types of treatment services are available to them and through which treatment facilities, and which ones will work best for their particular situation. There have been numerous grants offered in recent years to cover these types of services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effectively established recovery programs which provide evidence based treatment that also integrates culturally sensitive rehab services delivered in their language which are provided by bi-lingual staff members.
