American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to be in need to recovery services for substance abuse and addiction. On the Contrary, American Indians and Alaska Natives are also more prone to seek treatment on their own will more than other racial/ethnic groups. Roughly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native addiction treatment admissions arrive to treatment as criminal justice clients, meaning they have very likely agreed to a diversion option to receive treatment in lieu of jail times for their charges. So as one can see, there is a definite need for a variety of service types to cover all of the very unique needs of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including addiction rehabilitation services in native languages.
One of the problems that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Phillipsport face is access to effective rehab programs, particularly those who live in secluded locations. Facilities offering drug and alcohol treatment services in rural regions may not be set up to provide strategic planning designed to meet the needs and demands of this special demographic including substance abuse treatment services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native clients can consult with elders and stakeholders working in mental health services for their tribe or region to determine which treatment services are an option for them through which treatment facilities, and which will best suit their needs. There have been many grants sanctioned in recent years to cover these types of rehab services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effectively established treatment programs which provide evidence based treatment that also incorporates culturally sensitive recovery services including those in their language which are provided by bi-lingual staff members.
