American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to be in need to rehabilitation for substance abuse and addiction. Conversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are more prone to seek treatment on their own will more than other racial/ethnic groups. Almost 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native substance abuse treatment admissions arrive to treatment as criminal justice clients, meaning they have most likely accepted a diversion option to receive treatment in lieu of jail time. So as one can see, there is an absolute need for a variety of service types to cover all of the various requirements of this client demographic, including substance abuse treatment programs in native languages.
One of the challenges that American Indian and Alaska Natives in John Day face is access to effective rehab programs, especially those who live in secluded areas. Programs offering addiction treatment services in rural areas may not be capable of offering strategic planning designed to meet the needs and demands of this unique demographic including addiction rehabilitation services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native individuals can consult with stakeholders and elders 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 be most effective for their scenario. There have been many grants offered in recent years to cover these types of rehab services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effectively established programs which offer evidence based treatment that also encompasses culturally sensitive recovery services delivered in their language which are provided by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
