Individuals who speak other languages, other than English that is, should receive drug or alcohol treatment which is on par with English speakers. Those who speak 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 many drug treatment centers 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 rehab programs which can treat people who speak other languages are only short term rehab facilities, but there are more long term options available. Foreign language speakers can seek the advice from an addiction professional in their area to choose a drug or alcohol treatment facility which would be suitable to their needs.
