American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to be in need to treatment for drug and alcohol 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. Nearly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native substance abuse treatment admissions arrive to rehab as criminal justice clients, meaning they have very likely accepted a diversion option to receive rehab instead of jail times for their charges. So as one can see, there is an absolute need for different types of treatment programs to provide services for all of the very unique needs of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including addiction rehabilitation programs in native languages.
One of the barriers that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Stringtown face is access to comprehensive treatment facilities, particularly those who live in rural regions. Facilities offering substance abuse rehabilitation services in rural regions may not be able to offer support intended for the needs and demands of this unique group of people including addiction treatment services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native people can consult with elders and stakeholders working in mental health services for their region or tribe to determine which types of treatment services are an option for them and through which treatment facilities, and which ones will be most effective for their scenario. There have been many grants approved in recent years to help pay for these types of services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effectively established recovery programs which provide evidence based treatment that also incorporates culturally sensitive recovery services including those in their language which are provided by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
