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. Reversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are more likely to feel the need to seek treatment than other racial/ethnic groups. Roughly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native drug and alcohol treatment admissions show up to treatment as criminal justice clients, meaning they have most likely accepted a diversion option to go to rehab in lieu of jail times for their charges. So therefore, there is definitely a need for a variety of service types to cover all of the very unique needs of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including substance abuse treatment services in native languages.
One of the challenges that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Lakebay face is access to comprehensive and effective treatment facilities, especially those who live in rural locations. Programs offering addiction rehabilitation services in rural regions commonly are not capable of offering support aimed at meeting the needs and demands of this special group of people including addiction treatment services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native clients can consult with stakeholders and elders involved in mental health services for their tribe or region to find out which services are available to them through which rehab facilities, and which will best suit their needs. There have been many grants approved in recent years to cover these types of rehab services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effectively established programs which provide evidence based treatment that also incorporates culturally sensitive treatment services delivered in their language which are performed by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
