American Indian or Alaska Native Languages - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Monticello, 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 likely to feel the need to seek treatment than other racial/ethnic groups. Nearly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native drug and alcohol treatment admissions show up to treatment as criminal justice clients, meaning they have very likely agreed to a diversion option to receive rehab instead of jail times for their charges. So therefore, there is an absolute need for different types of treatment programs to cover all of the various needs of this client demographic, including addiction treatment programs in native languages.

One of the barriers that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Monticello face is access to effective rehab programs, particularly those who live in rural areas. Programs providing drug and alcohol rehabilitation services in rural regions commonly are not set up to provide strategic planning designed to meet the needs of this unique demographic including substance abuse treatment services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native people can work with stakeholders and elders working in mental health services for their tribe or region to figure out which types of treatment services are available to them through which rehab facilities, and which ones will be most effective for their scenario. 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 effectively established recovery programs which offer evidence based treatment that also integrates culturally sensitive recovery services delivered in their language which are provided by bi-lingual staff members.
