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

American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to require treatment for substance abuse and addiction. Conversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are more likely to feel the need to seek treatment than other racial/ethnic groups. Almost 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native addiction treatment admissions arrive to rehab as criminal justice clients, meaning they have very likely accepted a court ordered diversion program to go to rehab instead of jail time. So as you can see, there is definitely a 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 challenges that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Fort Kent face is access to effective rehab programs, especially those who reside in rural regions. Facilities providing addiction rehab services in rural regions commonly are not able to offer 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 people can consult with stakeholders and elders working in mental health services for their tribe or region to figure out which services are available to them and through which facilities, and which ones will be most effective for their scenario. There have been many grants offered in recent years to help pay for these types of rehab services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effective recovery programs which offer evidence based treatment that also encompasses culturally sensitive rehab services delivered in their language which are performed by bi-lingual staff members.
