American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to need rehabilitation for substance 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. Almost 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native addiction treatment admissions show up to treatment as criminal justice clients, which means they have very likely agreed to a diversion option to receive rehab instead of jail times for their charges. So as you can see, there is a definite need for different types of treatment programs to provide services for all of the various requirements of this client demographic, including substance abuse treatment services in native languages.
One of the problems that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Battiest face is access to effective rehab programs, particularly those who reside in secluded areas. Facilities offering substance abuse treatment services in rural areas often are not capable of offering strategic planning designed to meet the needs and demands of this unique demographic including substance abuse treatment services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native clients can work with elders and stakeholders working in mental health services for their region or tribe to figure out which treatment 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 treatment services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effective programs which provide evidence based treatment that also incorporates culturally sensitive treatment services delivered in their language which are performed by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
