American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to need recovery services 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. Roughly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native addiction treatment admissions arrive to rehab as criminal justice clients, which means they have very likely agreed to a diversion option to receive treatment in lieu 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 various requirements of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including addiction rehabilitation services in native languages.
One of the barriers that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Newport face is access to effective services, particularly those who live in rural areas. Programs providing drug and alcohol treatment services in rural areas may not be capable of offering strategic planning aimed at meeting the needs of this unique group of people including addiction rehabilitation services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native individuals can consult with stakeholders and elders working in mental health services for their tribe or region to find out which services are available to them and through which treatment facilities, and which ones will best suit their needs. There have been numerous grants sanctioned in recent years to help pay for these types of rehab services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effective programs which provide evidence based treatment that also integrates culturally sensitive rehab services delivered in their language which are provided by bi-lingual staff members.
