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

American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to need rehabilitation for substance abuse and addiction. Reversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are also more likely to feel the need to seek treatment than other racial/ethnic groups. Almost 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native drug and alcohol treatment admissions arrive to rehab as criminal justice clients, meaning they have very likely accepted a diversion option to go to rehab instead of jail times for their charges. So as one can see, there is definitely a need for different types of treatment programs to provide services for all of the various requirements of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including substance abuse treatment services in native languages.

One of the challenges that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Thorndike face is access to comprehensive and effective treatment facilities, particularly those who live in secluded areas. Facilities offering drug and alcohol rehab services in rural regions commonly are not able to offer strategic planning intended for the needs of this distinctive demographic including substance abuse rehabilitation services in their language. American Indian and Alaska Native people can work with stakeholders and elders involved in mental health services for their region or tribe to figure out which treatment services are available to them through which rehab facilities, and which ones will best suit their needs. There have been numerous grants sanctioned in recent years to help pay for these types of rehab services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effectively established treatment programs which offer evidence based treatment that also incorporates culturally sensitive recovery services delivered in their language which are provided by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
