American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to need 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 drug and alcohol treatment admissions show up to rehab as criminal justice clients, meaning they have most likely accepted a diversion option to receive 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 needs of this client demographic, including addiction rehabilitation services in native languages.
One of the barriers that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Gore face is access to comprehensive services, especially those who live in rural areas. Facilities offering addiction treatment services in rural areas commonly are not set up to provide support intended for the needs of this distinctive group of people including addiction treatment services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native people can work with elders and stakeholders working in mental health services for their region or tribe to figure out which treatment services are available to them and through which facilities, and which ones will work best for their particular situation. There have been many grants offered in recent years to cover these types of rehab services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effective treatment 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.
