Other Language Programs

Those 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 many drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs available which provide services to those who speak foreign languages, all of which offer a variety of programs to choose from. For example, some substance abuse treatment facilities which can treat people who speak other languages are only short term rehab facilities, and others are longer term programs. Foreign language speakers should consult with an addiction professional in their area to choose a drug rehab facility that provides rehabilitation services in their specific language.
