American Indian or Alaska Native Languages - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Dresden, ME.

American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to require recovery services for substance abuse and addiction. On the Contrary, American Indians and Alaska Natives are also more likely to seek treatment on their own will more than other racial/ethnic groups. Roughly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native addiction treatment admissions show up to treatment as criminal justice clients, meaning they have very likely agreed to a diversion option to receive 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 various requirements of this client demographic, including addiction rehabilitation programs in native languages.

One of the barriers that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Dresden face is access to comprehensive rehab programs, particularly those who live in rural areas. Facilities providing addiction rehabilitation services in rural regions may not be set up to provide strategic planning designed to meet the needs of this special demographic including addiction treatment services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native individuals can work with elders and stakeholders working in mental health services for their tribe or region to figure out which types of treatment services are an option for them and through which facilities, and which ones will work best for their particular situation. There have been many grants offered in recent years to help pay for these types of treatment services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effective recovery programs which offer evidence based treatment that also integrates culturally sensitive rehab services including those in their language which are performed by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
