Strategic Plan Goal 1:
To ensure that comprehensive, culturally appropriate personal and public health services are available and accessible to American Indian and Alaska Native (AI/AN) people, the Preventing Alcohol-Related Deaths through Social Detoxification (PARD) project is designed to provide communities the ability to reduce alcohol-related mortality and encourage clients to seek additional alcohol and/or substance use disorder treatment after discharge from a detoxification program.

Indian Health Service (IHS) will use this funding to focus on the provision of services in Tribal and Urban Indian communities with the highest burden of alcohol-related deaths among AI/AN persons.

IHS analyzed the national rates of causes of deaths using the CDC data (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, National Center for Health Statistics.

National Vital Statistics System, Mortality 1999-2020 on CDC WONDER Online Database, released in 2021), and determined that McKinley County, New Mexico (with the largest city of Gallup), continues to have the highest burden of alcohol-related deaths among AI/AN persons.

Additionally, the 2017 Senate Appropriations Committee Report 114–281 expressed the Committee’s expectation that IHS address alcohol and substance abuse through Federal, State, local, and tribal partners, calling for a sustainable model for life-saving community services, with specific attention on the capabilities of the Na’Nizhoozhi Center in Gallup, New Mexico.

A consensus among clinical and subject matter experts understand detoxification does not provide the full spectrum of alcohol and/or substance use disorder treatment but can serve as a pathway to seeking treatment and as a component in the continuum of services for alcohol and substance use disorders (Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) Treatment Improvement Protocol (TIP) 45 (https://www.samhsa.gov/resource/ebp/tip-45-detoxification-substance-abuse-treatment).
