American Indian or Alaska Native Languages - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Whiting, ME.

American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to need treatment 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. Almost 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native addiction treatment admissions arrive to treatment as criminal justice clients, meaning they have most likely accepted a court ordered diversion program to go to rehab instead of jail times for their charges. So therefore, there is a definite need for a variety of service types to provide services for all of the various requirements of this client demographic, including substance abuse treatment programs in native languages.

One of the challenges that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Whiting face is access to comprehensive and effective treatment facilities, particularly those who live in secluded regions. Facilities providing substance abuse rehabilitation services in rural regions commonly are not set up to provide strategic planning intended for the needs of this unique group of people including addiction rehabilitation services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native individuals can work with elders and stakeholders working in mental health services for their region or tribe to find out which services are available to them and through which facilities, and which ones will best suit their needs. There have been many grants approved in recent years to help pay for these types of services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effectively established programs which provide evidence based treatment that also encompasses culturally sensitive treatment services delivered in their language which are performed by bi-lingual staff members.
