American Indian or Alaska Native Languages - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Livermore, ME.

American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to need treatment for drug and alcohol 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 substance abuse treatment admissions show up to rehab as criminal justice clients, which means they have very likely agreed to a court ordered diversion program to go to rehab instead of jail time. So therefore, there is a definite need for a variety of service types to provide services for all of the very unique requirements of this client demographic, including addiction rehabilitation programs in native languages.

One of the challenges that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Livermore face is access to comprehensive services, particularly those who live in secluded areas. Facilities offering substance abuse rehab services in rural areas often are not set up to provide strategic planning designed to meet the needs and demands of this special group of people including substance abuse treatment services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native people can consult with stakeholders and elders working in mental health services for their tribe or region to determine which services are an option for them through which facilities, and which ones will work best for their particular situation. There have been many grants approved in recent years to help pay for these types of services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effective programs which offer evidence based treatment that also incorporates culturally sensitive treatment services including those in their language which are provided by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
