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 more likely to feel the need to seek treatment than other racial/ethnic groups. Almost 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native addiction treatment admissions show up to treatment as criminal justice clients, which means they have very likely agreed to a court ordered diversion program to go to rehab in lieu of jail time. So as one can see, there is an absolute need for a variety of service types to cover all of the very unique needs of this client demographic, including addiction treatment services in native languages.
One of the problems that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Emery face is access to comprehensive treatment facilities, particularly those who reside in rural locations. Programs offering substance abuse rehabilitation services in rural areas commonly are not set up to provide support intended for the needs of this distinctive demographic including substance abuse treatment services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native people can consult with stakeholders and elders involved in mental health services for their region or tribe to determine which treatment services are available to them and through which facilities, and which ones will best suit their needs. There have been many grants approved in recent years to cover these types of treatment services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effectively established programs which provide evidence based treatment that also encompasses culturally sensitive recovery services delivered in their language which are performed by bi-lingual staff members.
