American Indian or Alaska Native Languages - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Pembroke, 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 drug and alcohol abuse and addiction. Reversely, 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 drug and alcohol treatment admissions show up to treatment as criminal justice clients, which means they have very likely accepted a diversion option to receive treatment instead of jail time. So as one can see, there is an absolute need for different types of treatment programs to cover all of the very unique requirements of this client demographic, including addiction treatment services in native languages.

One of the barriers that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Pembroke face is access to comprehensive services, especially those who reside in rural locations. Facilities providing drug and alcohol rehab services in rural areas often are not capable of offering strategic planning aimed at meeting the needs and demands of this unique demographic including addiction rehabilitation services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native individuals can consult with stakeholders and elders involved in mental health services for their tribe or region to determine which treatment services are available to them through which treatment facilities, and which will best suit their needs. There have been many grants offered in recent years to help pay for these types of services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effectively established treatment programs which provide evidence based treatment that also encompasses culturally sensitive recovery services including those in their language which are provided by bi-lingual staff members.
