American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to need rehabilitation for drug and alcohol 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. Nearly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native addiction treatment admissions show up to treatment as criminal justice clients, which means they have very likely agreed to a diversion option to receive rehab in lieu of jail times for their charges. So therefore, there is a definite need for a variety of service types to provide services for all of the very unique needs of this client demographic, including addiction treatment services in native languages.
One of the problems that American Indian and Alaska Natives in South Milwaukee face is access to effective treatment facilities, especially those who live in secluded areas. Facilities offering drug and alcohol rehabilitation services in rural areas commonly are not set up to provide support aimed at meeting the needs of this unique group of people including substance abuse rehabilitation services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native people can work with stakeholders and elders involved in mental health services for their region or tribe to find out which types of treatment services are available to them and through which facilities, and which will be most effective for their scenario. There have been many grants sanctioned in recent years to cover these types of rehab services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effectively established treatment programs which provide evidence based treatment that also incorporates culturally sensitive treatment services delivered in their language which are provided by bi-lingual staff members.
