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. Conversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are more likely to feel the need to seek treatment than other racial/ethnic groups. Nearly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native substance abuse treatment admissions show up to treatment as criminal justice clients, meaning they have most likely agreed to a diversion option to go to rehab instead of jail time. So as one can see, there is definitely a need for different types of treatment programs to provide services for all of the very unique requirements of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including substance abuse treatment services in native languages.
One of the barriers that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Ocean Park face is access to comprehensive treatment facilities, particularly those who live in rural locations. Programs providing drug and alcohol rehabilitation services in rural areas may not be capable of offering support designed to meet the needs of this unique group of people including addiction treatment services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native clients can work with elders and stakeholders involved in mental health services for their region or tribe to find out which types of treatment services are available to them through which rehab facilities, and which ones will be most effective for their scenario. There have been numerous grants sanctioned in recent years to help pay for these types of rehab services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effectively established treatment programs which provide evidence based treatment that also integrates culturally sensitive rehab services including those in their language which are provided by bi-lingual staff members.
