American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to require treatment for drug and alcohol abuse and addiction. Conversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are more prone to seek treatment on their own will more than other racial/ethnic groups. Roughly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native addiction treatment admissions arrive to treatment as criminal justice clients, which means they have very likely accepted a diversion option to go to rehab instead of jail time. So as one can see, there is an absolute need for different types of treatment programs to provide services for all of the very unique requirements of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including substance abuse treatment programs in native languages.
One of the barriers that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Wilson face is access to effective treatment facilities, especially those who live in rural regions. Programs providing addiction rehab services in rural regions may not be set up to provide support aimed at meeting the needs of this distinctive group of people including substance abuse treatment services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native people can work with stakeholders and elders working in mental health services for their region or tribe to find out which services are available to them through which rehab facilities, and which ones will best suit their needs. There have been many grants approved in recent years to cover these types of services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effectively established recovery programs which provide evidence based treatment that also encompasses culturally sensitive treatment services including those in their language which are performed by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
