American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to require rehabilitation 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 arrive to treatment as criminal justice clients, meaning they have very likely accepted a diversion option to go to treatment in lieu of jail time. So therefore, there is definitely a need for a variety of service types to provide services for all of the very unique needs of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including substance abuse treatment services in native languages.
One of the problems that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Youngsville face is access to comprehensive rehab programs, especially those who live in secluded locations. Facilities providing addiction treatment services in rural areas may not be capable of offering strategic planning intended for the needs of this unique group of people including substance abuse rehabilitation services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native clients 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 through which facilities, and which will work best for their particular situation. There have been many grants approved in recent years to cover these types of rehab services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effectively established treatment programs which provide evidence based treatment that also integrates culturally sensitive rehab services delivered in their language which are provided by bi-lingual staff members.
