American Indian or Alaska Native Languages - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Belfast, ME.

American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to be in need to rehabilitation for drug and alcohol abuse and addiction. Conversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are also more prone to seek treatment on their own will more than other racial/ethnic groups. Roughly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native drug and alcohol treatment admissions show up to treatment as criminal justice clients, which means they have very likely accepted a diversion option to receive rehab instead of jail times for their charges. So as one can see, there is a definite need for different types of treatment programs to cover all of the very unique needs of this client demographic, including substance abuse treatment services in native languages.

One of the problems that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Belfast face is access to comprehensive and effective treatment facilities, particularly those who live in rural locations. Facilities offering substance abuse rehabilitation services in rural regions may not be able to offer support aimed at meeting the needs and demands of this special group of people including addiction treatment services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native people can consult with stakeholders and elders involved in mental health services for their region or tribe to find out which treatment services are available to them through which rehab facilities, and which ones will best suit their needs. There have been numerous grants sanctioned in recent years to cover these types of rehab services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effective programs which provide evidence based treatment that also encompasses culturally sensitive treatment services delivered in their language which are performed by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
