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. Reversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are also more likely to seek treatment on their own will more than other racial/ethnic groups. Nearly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native substance abuse treatment admissions arrive to treatment as criminal justice clients, meaning they have most likely accepted a court ordered diversion program to receive treatment in lieu of jail time. So as one can see, 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 programs in native languages.
One of the problems that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Middlesex face is access to comprehensive and effective rehab programs, especially those who live in rural locations. Facilities offering drug and alcohol rehabilitation services in rural areas may not be set up to provide support intended for the needs and demands of this unique demographic including addiction rehabilitation services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native individuals can work with elders and stakeholders working in mental health services for their tribe or region to find out which services are available to them and through which treatment facilities, and which will best suit their needs. There have been numerous grants offered in recent years to help pay for these types of rehab services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effective programs which provide evidence based treatment that also encompasses culturally sensitive recovery services delivered in their language which are provided by bi-lingual staff members.
