Other Language Programs

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. Speakers of 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 rehabilitation centers 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 programs which provide services for those who speak other languages are only short term rehab facilities, 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 rehab facility which would be suitable to their needs.
