Other Language Programs

People who speak other languages, other than English that is, should be able to receive drug or alcohol rehabilitation 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 substance abuse rehab programs available which cater to those who speak foreign languages, all of which offer a variety of programs to choose from. For example, some drug rehabilitation programs which can treat individuals who speak other languages are only short term rehab facilities, and others are longer term programs. Foreign language speakers should seek the advice from an addiction professional in their area to choose a drug or alcohol treatment facility which would be suitable to their needs.
