American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to require rehabilitation for drug and alcohol abuse and addiction. Conversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are also 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 arrive to treatment as criminal justice clients, which means they have very likely accepted a diversion option to receive rehab instead of jail times for their charges. So as you can see, there is an absolute need for a variety of service types to provide services for all of the various requirements of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including addiction rehabilitation programs in native languages.
One of the challenges that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Falls City face is access to comprehensive and effective services, particularly those who live in rural regions. Facilities providing substance abuse rehab services in rural regions often are not set up to provide strategic planning aimed at meeting the needs and demands of this special group of people including substance abuse rehabilitation services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native individuals can consult with elders and stakeholders involved in mental health services for their tribe or region to figure out which types of treatment services are available to them through which rehab facilities, and which will best suit their needs. There have been numerous grants sanctioned in recent years to cover these types of services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effectively established programs which offer evidence based treatment that also incorporates culturally sensitive treatment services delivered in their language which are provided by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
