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. Roughly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native substance abuse treatment admissions arrive to rehab as criminal justice clients, meaning they have most likely agreed to a court ordered diversion program to go to rehab in lieu of jail time. So as one can see, there is definitely a need for different types of treatment programs to cover all of the very unique requirements of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including substance abuse treatment services in native languages.
One of the problems that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Silver Bay face is access to comprehensive and effective rehab programs, especially those who reside in rural areas. Programs providing addiction treatment services in rural areas commonly are not set up to provide strategic planning intended for the needs and demands of this distinctive demographic including substance abuse rehabilitation services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native people can consult with elders and stakeholders working in mental health services for their region or tribe to figure out which services are available to them through which treatment facilities, and which ones will best suit their needs. There have been many grants offered in recent years to cover these types of services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effectively established programs which provide evidence based treatment that also encompasses culturally sensitive treatment services including those in their language which are provided by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
