American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to need rehabilitation for drug and alcohol 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 drug and alcohol treatment admissions show up to treatment as criminal justice clients, which means they have most likely accepted a court ordered diversion program to go to rehab instead of jail times for their charges. So therefore, there is an absolute need for a variety of service types to provide services for all of the various requirements of this client demographic, including addiction treatment services in native languages.
One of the problems that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Cheney face is access to comprehensive rehab programs, particularly those who live in rural areas. Programs offering drug and alcohol rehab services in rural areas commonly are not capable of offering support designed to meet the needs and demands of this special group of people including addiction rehabilitation services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native people can work with elders and stakeholders working in mental health services for their region or tribe to determine which treatment services are an option for them and through which treatment facilities, and which will work best for their particular situation. There have been numerous grants approved in recent years to help pay for these types of services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effective programs which provide evidence based treatment that also encompasses culturally sensitive recovery services delivered in their language which are provided by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
