American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to need rehabilitation for drug and alcohol abuse and addiction. Reversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are also more likely 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 treatment as criminal justice clients, which means they have most likely accepted a court ordered diversion program to receive rehab in lieu of jail time. So therefore, there is an absolute need for a variety of service types to cover all of the various needs of this client demographic, including substance abuse treatment programs in native languages.
One of the barriers that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Redmond face is access to comprehensive rehab programs, especially those who live in rural areas. Programs offering addiction rehabilitation services in rural areas often are not able to offer support intended for the needs and demands of this special demographic including substance abuse rehabilitation services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native clients can consult with stakeholders and elders working in mental health services for their region or tribe to find out which services are available to them and through which treatment facilities, and which ones will work best for their particular situation. There have been many grants offered in recent years to help pay for these types of treatment services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effective treatment programs which offer evidence based treatment that also encompasses culturally sensitive recovery services including those in their language which are performed by bi-lingual staff members.
