American Indian or Alaska Native Languages - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Guilford, ME.

American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to require rehabilitation for drug and alcohol abuse and addiction. Reversely, 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 substance abuse treatment admissions show up to treatment as criminal justice clients, meaning they have very likely accepted a diversion option to go to treatment instead of jail time. So as you can see, there is an absolute need for a variety of service types to cover all of the various requirements of this client demographic, including addiction treatment programs in native languages.

One of the problems that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Guilford face is access to comprehensive rehab programs, especially those who live in secluded areas. Programs providing substance abuse treatment services in rural areas may not be set up to provide strategic planning designed to meet the needs of this unique group of people including addiction rehabilitation services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native people can work with stakeholders and elders involved in mental health services for their tribe or region to find out which treatment services are an option for them and through which rehab facilities, and which will work best for their particular situation. There have been many grants sanctioned in recent years to cover these types of rehab services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effectively established recovery programs which provide evidence based treatment that also incorporates culturally sensitive recovery services including those in their language which are provided by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
