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. Reversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are more likely to seek treatment on their own will more than other racial/ethnic groups. Nearly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native addiction treatment admissions show up to rehab as criminal justice clients, which means they have very likely accepted a court ordered diversion program to go to rehab instead of jail times for their charges. So therefore, there is an absolute need for different types of treatment programs to provide services for all of the various needs of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including addiction treatment services in native languages.
One of the problems that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Langford face is access to comprehensive services, particularly those who live in secluded regions. Facilities providing addiction rehab services in rural regions may not be able to offer support aimed at meeting the needs of this distinctive demographic including addiction treatment services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native people can work with elders and stakeholders involved in mental health services for their tribe or region to figure out which services are an option for them and through which treatment facilities, and which will work best for their particular situation. There have been many grants offered in recent years to cover these types of treatment services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effectively established recovery programs which offer evidence based treatment that also incorporates culturally sensitive treatment services including those in their language which are performed by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
