Other Language Programs

Those who speak other languages, other than English that is, should 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 offer a selection of programs to choose from. For example, some drug treatment programs which cater to those who speak other languages are only short term rehab facilities, and others are longer term programs. Foreign language speakers can seek the advice from a treatment professional in their area to choose a drug treatment facility which would be suitable to their needs.
