United Amerindian Center Closes Down Due to Lack of Funds
In Green Bay, Wisconsin there is an organization called United Amerindian Center. They provide medical services and drug and alcohol counseling free of charge to American Indians who don’t live on reservation land. Or they did. The center has been forced to close its doors to due to a lack of funds, according to the Green Bay Press Gazette.
Stephen Crowe is the director at the United Amerindian Center. He says, “We’ve cut back wages, services … whatever I could do to keep it open longer, we’ve done it. But we ran out of money.”
To remedy the situation, Crowe has put in a request for funds from a Connecticut American Indian tribe and the Oneida Tribe of Indians. Crowe says, “It’s just a matter of time before the grants get approved. I can’t even justify thinking of closing this place on a long-term basis.
A deficit of funds is a common problem in the world of substance abuse treatment. Those who need treatment are concerned about how they are going to find the money to pay for treatment and those who provide it need to pay the rent and the salaries of those who provide the services.
If you are addicted to opiate painkillers, however, treatment for the addiction is no more expensive than the prescription for the drug you are addicted to. A prescription to Suboxone will help your body stave off withdrawal symptoms without the overwhelming characteristics of other opiate painkillers that make it difficult to keep up with commitments at work and at home. The catch is that any doctor can prescribe opiates but the only doctors who can prescribe Suboxone are the ones who are certified specifically in the dispensation of buprenorphine in the form of Subutex or Suboxone. To make it as simple as possible, Meditox is staffed by doctors who specialize in drug addiction treatment and are certified to prescribe Suboxone. If you think that Suboxone might be your way out of prescription medication addiction, call Meditox today.
