American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to need recovery services for substance abuse and addiction. Conversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are more prone to feel the need to seek treatment than other racial/ethnic groups. Almost 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native substance abuse treatment admissions show up to rehab as criminal justice clients, which means they have most likely accepted a court ordered diversion program to go to treatment instead of jail times for their charges. So as you can see, there is definitely a need for a variety of service types to cover all of the various needs of this client demographic, including substance abuse treatment services in native languages.
One of the barriers that American Indian and Alaska Natives in West Valley face is access to comprehensive and effective treatment facilities, especially those who live in secluded areas. Facilities providing addiction rehab services in rural areas may not be set up to provide support aimed at meeting the needs and demands of this distinctive group of people including substance abuse treatment services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native individuals can consult with elders and stakeholders working in mental health services for their tribe or region to determine which types of treatment services are available to them through which rehab facilities, and which ones will best suit their needs. There have been numerous grants offered in recent years to cover these types of rehab services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effectively established recovery programs which provide evidence based treatment that also integrates culturally sensitive treatment services including those in their language which are provided by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
