American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to require treatment for substance abuse and addiction. Conversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are more prone to seek treatment on their own will more than other racial/ethnic groups. Almost 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native addiction treatment admissions show up to treatment as criminal justice clients, which means they have very likely accepted a court ordered diversion program to receive treatment instead of jail times for their charges. So as you can see, there is an absolute need for a variety of service types to provide services for all of the very unique needs of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including addiction rehabilitation services in native languages.
One of the challenges that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Tivoli face is access to effective treatment facilities, especially those who reside in rural locations. Facilities providing substance abuse rehabilitation services in rural areas commonly are not set up to provide strategic planning designed to meet the needs and demands of this unique group of people including substance abuse rehabilitation services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native people can consult with elders and stakeholders working in mental health services for their tribe or region to determine which services are available to them through which rehab facilities, and which ones 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, that have very effectively established programs which offer evidence based treatment that also integrates culturally sensitive recovery services delivered in their language which are provided by bi-lingual staff members.
