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. Reversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are more likely 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 rehab as criminal justice clients, which means they have most likely accepted a court ordered diversion program to go to rehab instead of jail times for their charges. So therefore, there is a definite need for a variety of service types to cover all of the various needs of this client demographic, including substance abuse treatment services in native languages.
One of the challenges that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Trevor face is access to comprehensive and effective rehab programs, especially those who live in secluded regions. Programs offering addiction treatment services in rural areas may not be set up to provide strategic planning designed to meet the needs of this distinctive 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 tribe or region to determine which services are available to them through which treatment facilities, and which ones will best suit their needs. 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 effective programs which offer evidence based treatment that also integrates culturally sensitive treatment services delivered in their language which are provided by bi-lingual staff members.
