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 more prone to feel the need to seek treatment than other racial/ethnic groups. Nearly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native addiction treatment admissions arrive to rehab as criminal justice clients, meaning they have most likely accepted a diversion option to go to rehab in lieu of jail times for their charges. So as you can see, there is an absolute need for a variety of service types to cover all of the very unique requirements of this client demographic, including addiction treatment services in native languages.
One of the challenges that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Spencertown face is access to comprehensive treatment facilities, particularly those who live in secluded areas. Programs offering drug and alcohol rehabilitation services in rural regions often are not set up to provide strategic planning intended for the needs of this unique demographic including addiction treatment services in their native 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 and through which facilities, and which ones will be most effective for their scenario. There have been many grants offered in recent years to cover these types of services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effective recovery programs which provide evidence based treatment that also encompasses culturally sensitive rehab services including those in their language which are performed by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
