American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to need recovery services 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. Nearly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native drug and alcohol treatment admissions arrive to rehab as criminal justice clients, which means they have very likely agreed to a court ordered diversion program to receive treatment in lieu of jail time. So therefore, there is definitely a need for a variety of service types to provide services for all of the very unique needs of this client demographic, including addiction rehabilitation programs in native languages.
One of the challenges that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Torrey face is access to comprehensive and effective rehab programs, especially those who live in rural areas. Facilities offering addiction rehabilitation services in rural regions commonly are not able to offer strategic planning aimed at meeting the needs of this unique group of people including substance abuse treatment services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native clients can work with stakeholders and elders involved in mental health services for their tribe or region to find out which treatment services are available to them through which treatment facilities, and which ones will be most effective for their scenario. There have been numerous grants sanctioned in recent years to help pay for these types of treatment services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effective recovery programs which provide evidence based treatment that also incorporates culturally sensitive recovery services including those in their language which are provided by bi-lingual staff members.
