American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to be in need to recovery services for drug and alcohol abuse and addiction. Reversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are more prone 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 rehab as criminal justice clients, which means they have most likely agreed to a diversion option to receive treatment instead of jail time. So as one can see, there is a definite need for a variety of service types to cover all of the very unique requirements of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including addiction treatment programs in native languages.
One of the challenges that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Cornelius face is access to effective treatment facilities, particularly those who reside in secluded areas. Facilities offering substance abuse rehabilitation services in rural areas commonly are not set up to provide strategic planning designed to meet the needs of this special group of people including addiction rehabilitation services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native people can work with elders and stakeholders working in mental health services for their tribe or region to determine which treatment services are available to them and through which treatment facilities, and which will best suit their needs. There have been numerous grants sanctioned in recent years to help pay for these types of treatment services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effective programs which offer evidence based treatment that also integrates culturally sensitive recovery services delivered in their language which are provided by bi-lingual staff members.
