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

American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to need recovery services for substance abuse and addiction. On the Contrary, American Indians and Alaska Natives are also more prone to seek treatment on their own will more than other racial/ethnic groups. Nearly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native addiction treatment admissions arrive to treatment as criminal justice clients, which means they have very likely agreed to a court ordered diversion program to receive treatment instead of jail time. So therefore, there is definitely a need for different types of treatment programs 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 Limington face is access to comprehensive and effective treatment facilities, particularly those who live in secluded regions. Programs providing addiction treatment services in rural regions often are not set up to provide strategic planning designed to meet the needs of this unique demographic including addiction treatment services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native clients can work with elders and stakeholders involved in mental health services for their region or tribe to determine which types of treatment services are an option for them and through which rehab facilities, and which ones will best suit their needs. There have been numerous grants sanctioned in recent years to help pay for these types of services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effectively established programs which offer evidence based treatment that also incorporates culturally sensitive treatment services including those in their language which are performed by bi-lingual staff members.
