American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to need treatment for drug and alcohol abuse and addiction. Conversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are more prone to seek treatment on their own will more than other racial/ethnic groups. Roughly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native drug and alcohol treatment admissions show up to treatment as criminal justice clients, which means they have most likely agreed to a court ordered diversion program to receive rehab instead of jail times for their charges. So as one can see, 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 challenges that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Gloucester face is access to effective services, particularly those who reside in secluded regions. Programs offering addiction treatment services in rural regions often are not capable of offering support aimed at meeting the needs of this unique group of people including substance abuse rehabilitation services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native people can work with elders and stakeholders involved in mental health services for their region or tribe to find out which services are an option for them through which rehab 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, which have very effectively established recovery programs which offer evidence based treatment that also integrates culturally sensitive treatment services delivered in their language which are provided by bi-lingual staff members.
