American Indian or Alaska Native Languages - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - York, 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 prone to seek treatment on their own will more than other racial/ethnic groups. Nearly 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native addiction treatment admissions arrive to rehab as criminal justice clients, meaning they have most likely accepted a diversion option to go to rehab in lieu of jail times for their charges. So therefore, there is an absolute need for a variety of service types to cover all of the various requirements of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including addiction rehabilitation programs in native languages.

One of the challenges that American Indian and Alaska Natives in York face is access to comprehensive and effective treatment facilities, especially those who live in secluded regions. Facilities providing substance abuse rehab services in rural regions may not be able to offer support aimed at meeting the needs and demands of this special group of people including substance abuse treatment services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native clients can work with stakeholders and elders working in mental health services for their tribe or region to determine which treatment services are available to them and through which rehab facilities, and which ones will best suit their needs. There have been numerous grants approved in recent years to cover these types of services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effectively established recovery programs which provide evidence based treatment that also incorporates culturally sensitive rehab services including those in their language which are provided by bi-lingual treatment staff, medical staff, etc.
