American Indian or Alaska Native Languages - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Warren, ME.

American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to be in need to treatment for substance abuse and addiction. Reversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are more likely 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 rehab as criminal justice clients, which means they have most likely accepted a court ordered diversion program to go to treatment instead of jail time. So as you can see, there is a definite need for a variety of service types to cover all of the various needs of this client demographic, including addiction treatment services in native languages.

One of the problems that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Warren face is access to comprehensive and effective services, especially those who reside in rural areas. Programs providing addiction rehabilitation services in rural areas commonly are not set up to provide support intended for the needs and demands of this unique group of people including addiction rehabilitation services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native people can work with elders and stakeholders involved in mental health services for their region or tribe to figure out which types of treatment services are an option for them and through which rehab facilities, and which will be most effective for their scenario. There have been numerous grants approved in recent years to help pay for these types of treatment services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effective treatment programs which offer evidence based treatment that also integrates culturally sensitive treatment services including those in their language which are performed by bi-lingual staff members.
