American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to be in need to 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. Almost 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native drug and alcohol treatment admissions show up to rehab as criminal justice clients, meaning they have very likely accepted a court ordered diversion program to receive treatment in lieu of jail time. So therefore, there is a definite need for different types of treatment programs to cover all of the very unique requirements of this client demographic, including substance abuse treatment programs in native languages.
One of the challenges that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Neskowin face is access to effective treatment facilities, especially those who live in secluded regions. Facilities offering substance abuse rehabilitation services in rural regions may not be able to offer strategic planning designed to meet the needs and demands of this special demographic including substance abuse treatment services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native clients can work with stakeholders and elders involved in mental health services for their region or tribe to figure out which treatment services are available to them and through which facilities, and which ones will work best for their particular situation. There have been numerous grants approved in recent years to cover these types of treatment services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effective programs which offer evidence based treatment that also encompasses culturally sensitive treatment services including those in their language which are provided by bi-lingual staff members.
