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. On the Contrary, American Indians and Alaska Natives are more likely to feel the need to seek treatment than other racial/ethnic groups. Roughly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native drug and alcohol treatment admissions show up to rehab as criminal justice clients, which means they have very likely accepted a court ordered diversion program to receive rehab in lieu of jail times for their charges. So as you can see, there is an absolute need for different types of treatment programs to provide services for all of the very unique requirements of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including addiction treatment programs in native languages.
One of the barriers that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Medicine Park face is access to effective rehab programs, particularly those who reside in secluded regions. Facilities offering substance abuse rehab services in rural areas commonly are not able to offer support intended for the needs and demands of this unique group of people including substance abuse rehabilitation services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native people can work with elders and stakeholders involved in mental health services for their region or tribe to figure out which treatment services are available to them through which facilities, and which will work best for their particular situation. There have been many grants sanctioned in recent years to help pay for these types of rehab services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effective programs which provide evidence based treatment that also incorporates culturally sensitive recovery services including those in their language which are performed by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
