American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to be in need to 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 addiction treatment admissions arrive to treatment as criminal justice clients, meaning they have very likely agreed to a court ordered diversion program to go to rehab in lieu of jail times for their charges. So therefore, there is an absolute need for different types of treatment programs to cover all of the various requirements of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including substance abuse treatment programs in native languages.
One of the barriers that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Valders face is access to effective treatment facilities, particularly those who reside in rural regions. Programs providing substance abuse rehab services in rural areas often are not set up to provide strategic planning designed to meet the needs and demands of this special demographic including addiction treatment services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native clients can consult with stakeholders and elders working in mental health services for their tribe or region to find out which services are available to them and through which treatment facilities, and which will work best for their particular situation. There have been numerous grants approved in recent years to help pay for these types of treatment services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effective treatment programs which offer evidence based treatment that also encompasses culturally sensitive rehab services including those in their language which are performed by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
