People who speak other languages, other than English that is, should receive substance abuse treatment which is on par with English speakers. Speakers of 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 treatment programs available which cater to those who speak foreign languages, all of which provide a selection of programs to choose from. For example, some drug and alcohol treatment facilities which cater to individuals who speak other languages are only short term programs, but there are more long term options available. Foreign language speakers should seek the advice from an addiction professional in their area to choose a drug rehabilitation facility which would be suitable to their needs.
