American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to require treatment for drug and alcohol 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 substance abuse treatment admissions show up to rehab as criminal justice clients, which means they have most likely agreed to a court ordered diversion program to receive rehab instead of jail time. So therefore, there is an absolute need for different types of treatment programs to provide services for all of the very unique requirements of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including substance abuse treatment services in native languages.
One of the barriers that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Strasburg face is access to comprehensive treatment facilities, particularly those who live in secluded areas. Facilities providing substance abuse rehab services in rural regions may not be capable of offering support intended for the needs of this special group of people including substance abuse rehabilitation services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native people can consult with elders and stakeholders involved in mental health services for their region or tribe to figure out which treatment services are available to them through which rehab facilities, and which ones will work best for their particular situation. There have been many grants approved in recent years to cover these types of rehab services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effectively established recovery programs which provide evidence based treatment that also integrates culturally sensitive rehab services delivered in their language which are provided by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
