American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to be in need to treatment for drug and alcohol abuse and addiction. On the Contrary, American Indians and Alaska Natives are more likely to seek treatment on their own will more than other racial/ethnic groups. Roughly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native addiction treatment admissions arrive to rehab as criminal justice clients, meaning they have most likely agreed to a diversion option to go to rehab instead of jail time. So therefore, there is definitely a need for different types of treatment programs to cover all of the very unique requirements of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including substance abuse treatment programs in native languages.
One of the challenges that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Sparta face is access to comprehensive and effective services, especially those who live in secluded areas. Programs providing addiction rehabilitation services in rural areas may not be able to offer support aimed at meeting the needs and demands of this unique demographic including addiction treatment services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native clients can consult with elders and stakeholders involved in mental health services for their region or tribe to find out which services are an option for them and through which treatment facilities, and which will be most effective for their scenario. There have been many grants approved in recent years to cover these types of services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effective recovery programs which offer evidence based treatment that also integrates culturally sensitive treatment services including those in their language which are provided by bi-lingual staff members.
