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. 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 treatment as criminal justice clients, which means they have very likely accepted a court ordered diversion program to receive treatment instead of jail time. So as one can see, there is definitely a need for a variety of service types to provide services for all of the very unique needs of this client demographic, including substance abuse treatment programs in native languages.
One of the problems that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Columbia City face is access to effective rehab programs, especially those who reside in rural regions. Programs providing drug and alcohol treatment services in rural regions often are not able to offer strategic planning designed to meet the needs of this unique demographic including substance abuse rehabilitation services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native individuals can work with stakeholders and elders working in mental health services for their tribe or region to figure out which services are an option for them through which rehab facilities, and which ones will best suit their needs. There have been numerous grants offered in recent years to help pay for these types of rehab services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effectively established treatment programs which provide evidence based treatment that also incorporates culturally sensitive recovery services delivered in their language which are performed by bi-lingual staff members.
