American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to require rehabilitation for drug and alcohol abuse and addiction. On the Contrary, American Indians and Alaska Natives are also more prone to feel the need to seek treatment 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, meaning they have most likely agreed to a diversion option to receive rehab instead of jail times for their charges. So as you can see, there is a definite need for a variety of service types to cover all of the various requirements of this client demographic, including substance abuse treatment services in native languages.
One of the problems that American Indian and Alaska Natives in White Stone face is access to comprehensive and effective rehab programs, particularly those who live in rural areas. Programs offering drug and alcohol rehab services in rural regions often are not able to offer strategic planning aimed at meeting the needs and demands of this special demographic including addiction treatment services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native clients can consult with elders and stakeholders involved in mental health services for their tribe or region to find out which types of treatment services are available to them and through which treatment facilities, and which ones will work best for their particular situation. There have been numerous grants approved in recent years to help pay for these types of treatment services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effectively established treatment programs which offer evidence based treatment that also encompasses culturally sensitive rehab services delivered in their language which are provided by bi-lingual staff members.
