American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to require recovery services for drug and alcohol abuse and addiction. Conversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are also more likely to seek treatment on their own will more than other racial/ethnic groups. Nearly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native drug and alcohol treatment admissions arrive to treatment as criminal justice clients, meaning they have very likely agreed to a court ordered diversion program to receive rehab in lieu of jail times for their charges. So therefore, there is an absolute need for different types of treatment programs to cover all of the various requirements of this client demographic, including addiction treatment programs in native languages.
One of the challenges that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Milesville face is access to effective rehab programs, especially those who live in rural locations. Programs offering drug and alcohol treatment services in rural areas may not be capable of offering strategic planning intended for the needs of this special 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 treatment services are an option for them through which rehab facilities, and which ones will work best for their particular situation. There have been many grants offered in recent years to cover these types of rehab services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effectively established treatment programs which provide evidence based treatment that also incorporates culturally sensitive treatment services including those in their language which are provided by bi-lingual staff members.
