American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to require recovery services for drug and alcohol abuse and addiction. Reversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are also more prone to seek treatment on their own will more than other racial/ethnic groups. Almost 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native addiction treatment admissions show up to rehab as criminal justice clients, which means they have very likely agreed to a court ordered diversion program to go to treatment instead of jail time. So therefore, there is definitely a need for a variety of service types to provide services for all of the very unique requirements of this client demographic, including addiction treatment programs in native languages.
One of the barriers that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Clayton face is access to effective services, particularly those who reside in rural areas. Facilities offering addiction rehabilitation services in rural regions commonly are not capable of offering support intended for the needs and demands of this special group of people including substance abuse treatment services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native clients can consult with elders and stakeholders working in mental health services for their region or tribe to find out which services are available to them through which rehab facilities, and which will work best for their particular situation. 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 effective recovery programs which provide evidence based treatment that also integrates culturally sensitive treatment services delivered in their language which are provided by bi-lingual staff members.
