American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to need recovery services for drug and alcohol abuse and addiction. Conversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are more likely to feel the need to seek treatment than other racial/ethnic groups. Almost 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native addiction treatment admissions show up to treatment as criminal justice clients, meaning they have most likely agreed to a court ordered diversion program to go to rehab in lieu of jail times for their charges. So as one can see, there is an absolute need for a variety of service types to provide services for all of the very unique requirements of this client demographic, including substance abuse treatment programs in native languages.
One of the barriers that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Custer face is access to comprehensive services, especially those who reside in rural regions. Programs providing drug and alcohol rehabilitation services in rural areas often are not able to offer support designed to meet the needs of this special demographic including addiction rehabilitation services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native clients can work with elders and stakeholders involved in mental health services for their tribe or region to figure out which services are an option for them through which rehab facilities, and which will best suit their needs. There have been many grants sanctioned in recent years to help pay for these types of services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effective recovery programs which offer evidence based treatment that also encompasses culturally sensitive recovery services delivered in their language which are performed by bi-lingual staff members.
