American Indian or Alaska Native Languages - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Shawmut, ME.

American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to be in need to recovery services for drug and alcohol abuse and addiction. On the Contrary, 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 substance abuse treatment admissions arrive to treatment as criminal justice clients, which means they have very likely agreed to a diversion option to receive rehab in lieu of jail times for their charges. So as you can see, there is a definite need for a variety of service types to provide services for all of the various needs of this client demographic, including substance abuse treatment services in native languages.

One of the barriers that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Shawmut face is access to comprehensive and effective rehab programs, especially those who live in secluded areas. Facilities offering drug and alcohol rehab services in rural regions often are not capable of offering support designed to meet the needs and demands of this distinctive group of people including substance abuse treatment services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native individuals can consult with elders and stakeholders involved in mental health services for their tribe or region to determine which treatment services are an option for them and through which facilities, and which will best suit their needs. There have been many grants offered in recent years to help pay for these types of rehab services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effective treatment programs which provide evidence based treatment that also integrates culturally sensitive recovery services delivered in their language which are provided by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
