American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to require treatment for substance abuse and addiction. Conversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are also more prone 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 treatment as criminal justice clients, meaning they have most likely agreed to a diversion option to go to treatment in lieu of jail times for their charges. So therefore, there is an absolute need for a variety of service types to cover all of the very unique requirements of this client demographic, including addiction rehabilitation services in native languages.
One of the barriers that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Syracuse face is access to effective treatment facilities, especially those who live in secluded areas. Facilities offering substance abuse rehab services in rural areas often are not able to offer strategic planning designed to meet the needs of this unique demographic including addiction rehabilitation services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native individuals can consult with stakeholders and elders involved in mental health services for their region or tribe to determine which services are an option for them through which rehab facilities, and which will best suit their needs. There have been many grants approved in recent years to cover these types of services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effectively established programs which offer evidence based treatment that also integrates culturally sensitive rehab services including those in their language which are performed by bi-lingual staff members.
