American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to need rehabilitation for substance abuse and addiction. Conversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are more likely to feel the need to seek treatment than other racial/ethnic groups. Almost 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native substance abuse treatment admissions arrive to rehab as criminal justice clients, meaning they have very likely agreed to a court ordered diversion program to receive rehab instead of jail time. So as one can see, there is a definite need for different types of treatment programs to cover all of the various needs of this client demographic, including substance abuse treatment programs in native languages.
One of the problems that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Port Royal face is access to effective treatment facilities, particularly those who reside in secluded areas. Programs providing drug and alcohol treatment services in rural regions commonly are not capable of offering strategic planning intended for the needs and demands of this unique demographic including substance abuse rehabilitation services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native people can consult with elders and stakeholders working in mental health services for their tribe or region to find out which types of treatment services are available to them through which treatment facilities, and which ones will be most effective for their scenario. There have been numerous grants sanctioned in recent years to cover these types of treatment services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effectively established programs which provide evidence based treatment that also encompasses culturally sensitive recovery services including those in their language which are provided by bi-lingual staff members.
