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. Those who speak other languages should not feel that their treatment opportunities are limited or inferior because they don't speak English. There are many drug and alcohol rehab centers available which cater to those who speak foreign languages, all of which offer various programs to choose from. For example, some substance abuse rehab programs which cater to individuals who speak other languages are only short term programs, and others are longer term programs. Foreign language speakers can consult with a treatment professional in their area to choose a drug or alcohol treatment program which would be suitable to their needs.
