American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to need treatment for drug and alcohol abuse and addiction. Conversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are more likely to seek treatment on their own will more than other racial/ethnic groups. Roughly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native substance abuse treatment admissions arrive to rehab as criminal justice clients, which means they have most likely agreed to a diversion option to go to rehab instead of jail time. So as one can see, there is a definite need for different types of treatment programs to cover all of the very unique requirements of this client demographic, including addiction treatment services in native languages.
One of the problems that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Rotterdam Junction face is access to comprehensive and effective rehab programs, particularly those who reside in secluded areas. Facilities offering addiction treatment services in rural areas may not be able to offer support designed to meet the needs and demands of this special group of people including substance abuse treatment services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native clients can consult with elders and stakeholders working in mental health services for their tribe or region to find out which types of treatment services are an option for them and through which facilities, and which ones will work best for their particular situation. There have been many grants approved in recent years to cover these types of treatment services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effectively established treatment programs which offer evidence based treatment that also integrates culturally sensitive rehab services including those in their language which are provided by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
