American Indian or Alaska Native Languages - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Whitefield, ME.

American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to need recovery services for drug and alcohol abuse and addiction. Reversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are more prone to feel the need to seek treatment than other racial/ethnic groups. Roughly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native addiction treatment admissions show up to rehab as criminal justice clients, meaning they have very likely accepted a court ordered diversion program to go to treatment in lieu of jail time. So therefore, there is an absolute need for a variety of service types to cover all of the various requirements of this client demographic, including addiction rehabilitation programs in native languages.

One of the problems that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Whitefield face is access to effective rehab programs, particularly those who live in rural areas. Programs providing drug and alcohol rehab services in rural areas often are not set up to provide strategic planning intended for the needs of this distinctive demographic including substance abuse rehabilitation services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native clients can consult with stakeholders and elders involved in mental health services for their region or tribe to figure out which services are available to them and through which facilities, and which will be most effective for their scenario. There have been numerous grants offered in recent years to help pay for these types of services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effective recovery programs which provide evidence based treatment that also incorporates culturally sensitive treatment services including those in their language which are performed by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
