American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to need 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. Nearly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native substance abuse treatment admissions show up to treatment as criminal justice clients, meaning they have most likely agreed to a court ordered diversion program to go to treatment instead of jail times for their charges. So therefore, there is an absolute need for different types of treatment programs to provide services for all of the various needs of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including addiction rehabilitation services in native languages.
One of the challenges that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Sundance face is access to effective services, especially those who live in secluded regions. Facilities offering addiction treatment services in rural areas may not be capable of offering strategic planning designed to meet the needs and demands of this special group of people including substance abuse rehabilitation services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native individuals can consult with elders and stakeholders working in mental health services for their region or tribe to find out which services are an option for them through which rehab facilities, and which will best suit their needs. There have been numerous grants offered in recent years to help pay for these types of rehab services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effectively established treatment programs which provide evidence based treatment that also integrates culturally sensitive recovery services including those in their language which are provided by bi-lingual staff members.
