American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to require rehabilitation for substance abuse and addiction. Conversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are more prone 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 arrive to treatment as criminal justice clients, meaning they have very 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 different types of treatment programs to cover all of the very unique needs of this client demographic, including addiction treatment programs in native languages.
One of the problems that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Lyman face is access to effective services, especially those who reside in rural regions. Programs providing substance abuse treatment services in rural regions often are not capable of offering support designed to meet the needs of this special demographic including substance abuse rehabilitation services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native clients can work with stakeholders and elders working in mental health services for their tribe or region to determine which treatment services are an option for them and through which facilities, and which ones will best suit their needs. There have been numerous grants approved in recent years to help pay for these types of rehab services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effective programs which offer evidence based treatment that also integrates culturally sensitive rehab services including those in their language which are performed by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
