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. Reversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are also more likely to feel the need to seek treatment than other racial/ethnic groups. Nearly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native addiction treatment admissions arrive to rehab as criminal justice clients, meaning they have very likely agreed to a court ordered diversion program to go to treatment in lieu of jail times for their charges. So as you can see, there is a definite need for different types of treatment programs to cover all of the various requirements of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including substance abuse treatment programs in native languages.
One of the barriers that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Fulks Run face is access to comprehensive and effective rehab programs, especially those who live in secluded areas. Facilities providing drug and alcohol rehabilitation services in rural areas often are not set up to provide support aimed at meeting the needs of this distinctive group of people including addiction treatment services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native clients can work with stakeholders and elders working in mental health services for their region or tribe to determine which services are available to them and through which rehab facilities, and which will best suit their needs. There have been numerous grants offered in recent years to help pay for these types of services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effectively established recovery programs which offer evidence based treatment that also encompasses culturally sensitive rehab services delivered in their language which are performed by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
