American Indian or Alaska Native Languages - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - North Monmouth, ME.

American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to be in need to rehabilitation for substance abuse and addiction. Conversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are 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 arrive to treatment as criminal justice clients, meaning they have very likely accepted a diversion option to go to rehab instead of jail time. So as one can see, there is a definite need for a variety of service types to provide services for all of the very unique requirements of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including substance abuse treatment programs in native languages.

One of the problems that American Indian and Alaska Natives in North Monmouth face is access to effective rehab programs, particularly those who reside in rural locations. Programs offering drug and alcohol rehabilitation services in rural regions commonly are not able to offer support intended for the needs of this special demographic including substance abuse treatment services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native people can work with elders and stakeholders working in mental health services for their region or tribe to determine which services are available to them through which rehab facilities, and which ones will best suit their needs. There have been many grants offered in recent years to cover these types of treatment services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effectively established treatment programs which offer evidence based treatment that also encompasses culturally sensitive rehab services including those in their language which are performed by bi-lingual staff members.
