American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to need rehabilitation for substance abuse and addiction. Conversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are also more likely to feel the need to seek treatment than other racial/ethnic groups. Almost 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native substance abuse treatment admissions show up to rehab as criminal justice clients, which means they have very likely accepted a court ordered diversion program to go to rehab in lieu of jail time. So as one can see, there is an absolute need for different types of treatment programs to provide services for all of the various needs of this client demographic, including addiction rehabilitation programs in native languages.
One of the barriers that American Indian and Alaska Natives in New Woodstock face is access to comprehensive and effective treatment facilities, especially those who live in rural locations. Facilities providing substance abuse treatment services in rural areas commonly are not set up to provide support designed to meet the needs and demands of this unique group of people including addiction rehabilitation services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native people can work with elders and stakeholders working in mental health services for their region or tribe to determine which treatment services are an option for them through which treatment facilities, and which will be most effective for their scenario. There have been numerous grants approved in recent years to cover these types of treatment services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effectively established treatment programs which offer evidence based treatment that also encompasses culturally sensitive rehab services including those in their language which are provided by bi-lingual staff members.
