American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to require recovery services for substance abuse and addiction. Reversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are also more likely to feel the need to seek treatment than other racial/ethnic groups. Almost 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native substance abuse treatment admissions arrive to treatment as criminal justice clients, which means they have very likely accepted a diversion option to receive treatment in lieu of jail times for their charges. So as you can see, there is a definite need for a variety of service types to cover all of the various requirements of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including addiction rehabilitation services in native languages.
One of the challenges that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Banner face is access to comprehensive treatment facilities, particularly those who live in rural areas. Programs offering drug and alcohol treatment services in rural areas may not be set up to provide support intended for the needs and demands of this special demographic including substance abuse treatment services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native individuals can consult with elders and stakeholders involved in mental health services for their tribe or region to find out which treatment services are an option for them and through which rehab facilities, and which ones will be most effective for their scenario. There have been numerous grants approved 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 incorporates culturally sensitive rehab services including those in their language which are performed by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
