American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to need treatment for substance abuse and addiction. On the Contrary, American Indians and Alaska Natives are more likely to feel the need to seek treatment 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 very likely accepted a diversion option to receive rehab in lieu of jail times for their charges. So therefore, there is an absolute need for a variety of service types to provide services for all of the very unique needs of this client demographic, including addiction treatment programs in native languages.
One of the barriers that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Silverton face is access to comprehensive treatment facilities, particularly those who live in rural areas. Programs offering addiction rehab services in rural areas may not be set up to provide support intended for the needs of this unique group of people including addiction rehabilitation services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native people can work with elders and stakeholders involved in mental health services for their tribe or region to determine which types of treatment services are an option for them and through which rehab facilities, and which ones will be most effective for their scenario. There have been many grants sanctioned in recent years to help pay for these types of services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effectively established programs which provide evidence based treatment that also integrates culturally sensitive rehab services including those in their language which are performed by bi-lingual staff members.
