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

American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to require rehabilitation for drug and alcohol abuse and addiction. Conversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are also 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 arrive to rehab 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 one can see, there is a definite need for different types of treatment programs to provide services for all of the various requirements of this client demographic, including addiction treatment services in native languages.

One of the barriers that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Washburn face is access to comprehensive and effective services, particularly those who reside in secluded areas. Facilities providing substance abuse rehabilitation services in rural areas may not be set up to provide strategic planning designed to meet the needs and demands of this special demographic including substance abuse treatment services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native individuals can work with elders and stakeholders involved in mental health services for their region or tribe to determine which treatment services are available to them and through which facilities, and which will work best for their particular situation. There have been numerous grants approved in recent years to cover these types of treatment services for American and Alaska Native clients, which have very effective recovery programs which provide evidence based treatment that also integrates culturally sensitive rehab services including those in their language which are provided by bi-lingual staff members.
