American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to be in need to recovery services for substance abuse and addiction. On the Contrary, 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 substance abuse treatment admissions arrive to rehab as criminal justice clients, meaning they have most likely accepted a diversion option to receive treatment in lieu of jail times for their charges. 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 rehabilitation services in native languages.
One of the problems that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Nooksack face is access to comprehensive rehab programs, particularly those who live in rural regions. Facilities providing addiction rehabilitation services in rural areas often are not able to offer strategic planning intended for 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 consult with elders and stakeholders working in mental health services for their tribe or region to find out which services are an option for them and through which facilities, and which ones will best suit their needs. There have been numerous grants sanctioned in recent years to cover these types of rehab services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effectively established recovery programs which offer evidence based treatment that also incorporates culturally sensitive recovery services delivered in their language which are performed by bi-lingual staff members.
