American Indian or Alaska Native Languages - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Ocean Park, 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 also more prone to feel the need to seek treatment than other racial/ethnic groups. Almost 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native addiction treatment admissions arrive to rehab 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 as you can see, there is definitely a need for a variety of service types to cover all of the various needs of this client demographic, including addiction rehabilitation services in native languages.

One of the challenges that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Ocean Park face is access to comprehensive treatment facilities, especially those who reside in rural regions. Facilities offering addiction treatment services in rural regions may not be set up to provide support aimed at meeting the needs of this special demographic including substance abuse rehabilitation services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native people can work with elders and stakeholders involved in mental health services for their tribe or region to find out which services are an option for them and through which rehab facilities, and which will be most effective for their scenario. There have been many grants sanctioned in recent years to help pay for these types of services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effective treatment programs which offer evidence based treatment that also incorporates culturally sensitive recovery services delivered in their language which are performed by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
