American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to be in need to recovery services for substance abuse and addiction. Reversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are also more prone to feel the need to seek treatment than other racial/ethnic groups. Roughly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native drug and alcohol treatment admissions arrive to rehab as criminal justice clients, meaning they have very likely accepted a court ordered diversion program to go to rehab in lieu of jail time. So as one can see, there is a definite need for a variety of service types to cover all of the very unique needs of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including addiction rehabilitation services in native languages.
One of the barriers that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Hot Springs face is access to comprehensive rehab programs, especially those who reside in secluded regions. Facilities providing substance abuse rehab services in rural regions commonly are not set up to provide strategic planning intended for the needs and demands of this special demographic including addiction rehabilitation services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native clients can work with stakeholders and elders involved in mental health services for their tribe or region to determine which services are available to them through which treatment facilities, and which ones will best suit their needs. There have been many grants sanctioned in recent years to cover these types of rehab services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effectively established treatment programs which offer evidence based treatment that also integrates culturally sensitive recovery services delivered in their language which are provided by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
