American Indian or Alaska Native Languages - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - West Baldwin, ME.

American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to require rehabilitation for substance abuse and addiction. Reversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are more likely to feel the need to seek treatment 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, which means they have most likely agreed to a diversion option to receive rehab in lieu 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 this client demographic, including addiction rehabilitation services in native languages.

One of the barriers that American Indian and Alaska Natives in West Baldwin face is access to comprehensive treatment facilities, particularly those who live in secluded locations. Facilities providing substance abuse rehab services in rural regions may not be set up to provide support aimed at meeting the needs and demands of this unique group of people including addiction treatment services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native people can consult with elders and stakeholders involved in mental health services for their region or tribe to figure out which services are available to them and through which treatment facilities, and which ones will be most effective for their scenario. 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 effectively established programs which offer evidence based treatment that also incorporates culturally sensitive treatment services delivered in their language which are provided by bi-lingual staff members.
