American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to require recovery services for substance 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 show up to treatment as criminal justice clients, meaning they have very likely agreed to a court ordered diversion program to go to treatment instead of jail time. So as you can see, there is a definite need for different types of treatment programs to provide services for all of the very unique requirements of this client demographic, including substance abuse treatment services in native languages.
One of the problems that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Tyrone face is access to comprehensive treatment facilities, especially those who reside in rural locations. Programs offering drug and alcohol treatment services in rural regions may not be set up to provide strategic planning intended for the needs and demands of this unique group of people including addiction treatment services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native people can consult with stakeholders and elders involved in mental health services for their region or tribe to find out which types of treatment services are available to them through which rehab facilities, and which will be most effective for their scenario. There have been numerous grants sanctioned in recent years to help pay for these types of services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effective recovery programs which provide evidence based treatment that also encompasses culturally sensitive recovery services delivered in their language which are performed by bi-lingual staff members.
