American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to need rehabilitation for drug and alcohol abuse and addiction. Reversely, 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 addiction treatment admissions show up to treatment as criminal justice clients, which means they have most likely agreed to a diversion option to receive treatment in lieu of jail time. So as one can see, there is a definite need for a variety of service types to provide services for all of the various needs of this client demographic, including addiction treatment services in native languages.
One of the problems that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Grundy face is access to comprehensive and effective treatment facilities, especially those who reside in secluded regions. Programs providing drug and alcohol rehab services in rural regions may not be able to offer strategic planning aimed at meeting the needs and demands of this distinctive demographic including addiction treatment services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native people can work with elders and stakeholders working in mental health services for their tribe or region to determine which treatment services are an option for them through which rehab facilities, and which ones will best suit their needs. There have been many grants offered in recent years to cover these types of services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effective recovery programs which provide evidence based treatment that also integrates culturally sensitive rehab services including those in their language which are provided by bi-lingual staff members.
