American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to be in need to rehabilitation for drug and alcohol 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. Nearly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native drug and alcohol treatment admissions show up to treatment as criminal justice clients, meaning they have most likely accepted a diversion option to go to treatment instead of jail time. So as you can see, there is a definite need for different types of treatment programs to cover all of the various requirements of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including substance abuse treatment services in native languages.
One of the challenges that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Lovell face is access to comprehensive rehab programs, especially those who reside in rural locations. Facilities providing substance abuse treatment services in rural regions may not be able to offer support intended for the needs and demands of this unique demographic including substance abuse treatment services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native clients can consult with elders and stakeholders working in mental health services for their region or tribe to determine which services are an option for them and through which treatment facilities, and which will work best for their particular situation. There have been numerous grants offered in recent years to help pay for these types of services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effectively established recovery programs which offer evidence based treatment that also incorporates culturally sensitive recovery services delivered in their language which are provided by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
