American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to require rehabilitation for substance abuse and addiction. Conversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are also more prone to feel the need to seek treatment than other racial/ethnic groups. Almost 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native substance abuse treatment admissions show up to treatment as criminal justice clients, which means they have most likely agreed to a diversion option to go to treatment instead of jail times for their charges. So as one can see, there is a definite need for different types of treatment programs to provide services for 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 Santaquin face is access to comprehensive and effective services, particularly those who reside in rural locations. Programs offering substance abuse rehab services in rural regions often are not capable of offering support designed to meet the needs and demands of this special demographic including addiction rehabilitation services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native individuals can consult with elders and stakeholders involved in mental health services for their tribe or region to determine which services are available to them through which facilities, and which ones 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 provide evidence based treatment that also integrates culturally sensitive recovery services delivered in their language which are performed by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
