American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to require rehabilitation for substance abuse and addiction. On the Contrary, American Indians and Alaska Natives are more likely to seek treatment on their own will more than other racial/ethnic groups. Nearly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native addiction treatment admissions arrive to treatment as criminal justice clients, which means they have most likely accepted a diversion option to receive treatment in lieu of jail time. So as one can see, there is a definite need for different types of treatment programs to provide services for all of the very unique needs of this client demographic, including addiction rehabilitation services in native languages.
One of the challenges that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Painter face is access to comprehensive rehab programs, particularly those who live in rural areas. Programs providing drug and alcohol rehabilitation services in rural areas may not be able to offer support intended for the needs of this unique group of people including substance abuse rehabilitation services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native clients can consult with elders and stakeholders working in mental health services for their tribe or region to figure out which services are an option for them through which rehab facilities, and which ones will be most effective for their scenario. There have been many grants sanctioned in recent years to cover these types of rehab services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effectively established treatment programs which offer evidence based treatment that also encompasses culturally sensitive rehab services including those in their language which are performed by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
