Individuals who speak other languages, other than English that is, should be able to receive substance abuse 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 quite a few substance abuse rehabilitation programs available which provide services to those who speak foreign languages, all of which provide a variety of programs to choose from. For example, some drug treatment facilities which cater to people who speak other languages are only short term programs, but there are more long term options available. Foreign language speakers can consult with an addiction professional in their area to choose a drug or alcohol rehabilitation facility that provides rehabilitation services in their specific language.
