American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to need recovery services for drug and alcohol abuse and addiction. On the Contrary, American Indians and Alaska Natives are also more prone 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 treatment as criminal justice clients, which means they have very likely accepted a court ordered diversion program to receive rehab instead of jail times for their charges. So as you can see, there is a definite need for different types of treatment programs to cover all of the various requirements of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including addiction rehabilitation services in native languages.
One of the barriers that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Woodmere face is access to comprehensive rehab programs, particularly those who reside in rural areas. Facilities providing drug and alcohol treatment services in rural areas may not be set up to provide strategic planning designed to meet the needs and demands of this unique group of people including addiction treatment services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native clients can work with elders and stakeholders involved in mental health services for their tribe or region to determine 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 help pay for these types of rehab services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effectively established treatment programs which offer evidence based treatment that also encompasses culturally sensitive treatment services including those in their language which are performed by bi-lingual staff members.
