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. On the Contrary, American Indians and Alaska Natives are also more prone to seek treatment on their own will more than other racial/ethnic groups. Almost 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native substance abuse treatment admissions show up to treatment as criminal justice clients, which means they have most likely accepted a diversion option to receive rehab in lieu of jail time. So as one can see, there is an absolute need for different types of treatment programs to provide services for all of the very unique requirements of this client demographic, including substance abuse treatment programs in native languages.
One of the problems that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Indian Valley face is access to comprehensive services, especially those who reside in rural locations. Facilities offering addiction treatment services in rural areas may not be capable of offering strategic planning designed to meet the needs and demands of this special group of people including substance abuse 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 find out which services are available to them 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 treatment services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effectively established treatment programs which offer evidence based treatment that also incorporates culturally sensitive treatment services including those in their language which are provided by bi-lingual staff members.
