American Indian or Alaska Native Languages - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Portage, 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 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, meaning they have very likely accepted a diversion option to receive treatment instead of jail times for their charges. So as you can see, there is a definite need for different types of treatment programs to cover all of the various requirements of this client demographic, including addiction rehabilitation services in native languages.

One of the challenges that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Portage face is access to comprehensive services, especially those who reside in secluded locations. Facilities offering drug and alcohol treatment services in rural areas often are not set up to provide strategic planning aimed at meeting the needs of this unique demographic including addiction treatment services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native individuals can consult with stakeholders and elders involved in mental health services for their region or tribe to determine which services are an option for them and through which rehab facilities, and which ones will work best for their particular situation. 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 effective programs which provide evidence based treatment that also encompasses culturally sensitive rehab services including those in their language which are performed by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
