American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to require treatment for drug and alcohol abuse and addiction. On the Contrary, American Indians and Alaska Natives are more prone 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 show up to treatment as criminal justice clients, which means they have very likely agreed to a court ordered diversion program to receive rehab instead of jail time. So as you can see, there is an absolute need for different types of treatment programs to cover all of the various requirements of this client demographic, including addiction rehabilitation services in native languages.
One of the challenges that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Bohannon face is access to effective rehab programs, especially those who live in rural areas. Facilities offering addiction rehabilitation services in rural regions may not be set up to provide strategic planning designed to meet the needs of this special group of people including addiction rehabilitation services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native people can consult with stakeholders and elders working in mental health services for their region or tribe to figure out which treatment services are available to them through which rehab facilities, and which will best suit their needs. There have been numerous grants offered in recent years to cover these types of services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effective programs which provide evidence based treatment that also encompasses culturally sensitive treatment services delivered in their language which are provided by bi-lingual staff members.
