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. Almost 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native substance abuse treatment admissions show up to rehab as criminal justice clients, which means they have very likely accepted a diversion option to receive treatment instead of jail times for their charges. So as you can see, there is a definite need for a variety of service types to provide services for all of the very unique requirements of this client demographic, including addiction treatment services in native languages.
One of the challenges that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Cleveland face is access to comprehensive and effective treatment facilities, particularly those who reside in rural regions. Facilities offering addiction treatment services in rural areas commonly are not set up to provide strategic planning intended for the needs and demands of this distinctive demographic 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 tribe or region to figure out which types of treatment services are available to them and through which facilities, and which ones will best suit their needs. There have been many grants approved in recent years to help pay for these types of services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effectively established recovery programs which offer evidence based treatment that also incorporates culturally sensitive treatment services delivered in their language which are provided by bi-lingual staff members.
