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

American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to require treatment for drug and alcohol abuse and addiction. Conversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are also more prone to feel the need to seek treatment than other racial/ethnic groups. Nearly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native addiction 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 times for their charges. So as one can see, there is a definite need for a variety of service types to cover all of the very unique requirements of this client demographic, including substance abuse treatment services in native languages.

One of the challenges that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Mount Vernon face is access to comprehensive treatment facilities, particularly those who reside in secluded locations. Programs offering substance abuse treatment services in rural regions commonly are not set up to provide support aimed at meeting the needs of this unique group of people including addiction rehabilitation services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native people can consult with elders and stakeholders involved in mental health services for their tribe or region to find out which types of treatment services are an option for them through which facilities, and which ones will work best for their particular situation. There have been numerous grants sanctioned in recent years to cover these types of rehab services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effective treatment programs which provide evidence based treatment that also incorporates culturally sensitive treatment services including those in their language which are performed by bi-lingual staff members.
