Other Language Programs

People who speak other languages, other than English that is, should be able to receive drug or alcohol treatment which is on par with English speakers. Speakers of other languages should not feel that their treatment curriculum or treatment setting is going to be any less effective because they don't speak English. There are quite a few substance abuse rehab facilities available which cater to those who speak foreign languages, all of which provide a variety of programs to choose from. For example, some substance abuse rehabilitation facilities which cater to people who speak other languages are only short term rehab facilities, but there are more long term options available. Foreign language speakers can consult with an addiction professional in their area to choose a drug rehabilitation program which would be suitable to their needs.
