American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to need rehabilitation for substance abuse and addiction. On the Contrary, 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 show up to rehab as criminal justice clients, which means they have most likely agreed to a court ordered diversion program to receive rehab instead of jail time. So therefore, there is an absolute need for different types of treatment programs to cover all of the very unique needs of this client demographic, including addiction rehabilitation programs in native languages.
One of the problems that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Bluff face is access to effective rehab programs, particularly those who reside in secluded locations. Facilities providing addiction rehabilitation services in rural areas often are not set up to provide strategic planning intended for the needs and demands of this distinctive demographic including addiction treatment services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native individuals can consult with elders and stakeholders involved in mental health services for their region or tribe to find out which treatment services are available to them and through which rehab facilities, and which will best suit their needs. There have been many grants approved in recent years to help pay for these types of treatment services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effective programs which offer evidence based treatment that also integrates culturally sensitive recovery services including those in their language which are performed by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
