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. Reversely, 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 drug and alcohol treatment admissions arrive to treatment as criminal justice clients, which means they have most likely agreed to a court ordered diversion program to go to rehab in lieu of jail times for their charges. So therefore, there is an absolute need for a variety of service types to cover all of the very unique requirements of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including addiction rehabilitation programs in native languages.
One of the barriers that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Pulaski face is access to effective rehab programs, particularly those who reside in secluded areas. Facilities offering drug and alcohol rehabilitation services in rural regions may not be able to offer strategic planning aimed at meeting the needs of this special group of people including addiction rehabilitation services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native people can consult with stakeholders and elders working in mental health services for their tribe or region to determine which types of treatment services are an option for them and through which treatment facilities, and which will be most effective for their scenario. There have been many grants approved in recent years to help pay for these types of services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effective programs which provide evidence based treatment that also incorporates culturally sensitive treatment services delivered in their language which are provided by bi-lingual staff members.
