American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to be in need to treatment for substance abuse and addiction. Reversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are also 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 show up to treatment as criminal justice clients, meaning they have very likely agreed to a court ordered diversion program to receive treatment in lieu of jail time. So as one can see, there is a definite need for different types of treatment programs 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 Woodville face is access to comprehensive services, especially those who live in rural areas. Facilities providing drug and alcohol treatment services in rural regions commonly are not set up to provide strategic planning aimed at meeting the needs of this special group of people including substance abuse rehabilitation services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native people can consult with elders and stakeholders involved in mental health services for their tribe or region to figure out which treatment services are available to them and through which 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 treatment services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effectively established programs which offer evidence based treatment that also integrates culturally sensitive treatment services delivered in their language which are performed by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
