American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to need treatment 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 drug and alcohol treatment admissions arrive to treatment as criminal justice clients, which means they have very likely agreed to a diversion option to receive rehab in lieu of jail time. So as you can see, there is definitely a need for different types of treatment programs to provide services for all of the very unique needs of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including addiction treatment programs in native languages.
One of the problems that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Pinedale face is access to comprehensive and effective services, especially those who live in secluded regions. Facilities offering drug and alcohol rehab services in rural regions commonly are not able to offer support designed to meet the needs of this special group of people including substance abuse rehabilitation services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native individuals can work 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 through which rehab 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, which have very effective programs which offer evidence based treatment that also incorporates culturally sensitive rehab services delivered in their language which are provided by bi-lingual staff members.
