Other Language Programs

Individuals who speak other languages, other than English that is, should receive drug or alcohol 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 treatment centers available which provide services to those who speak foreign languages, all of which provide various programs to choose from. For example, some drug rehabilitation programs which provide services for individuals who speak other languages are only short term programs, but there are more long term options available. Foreign language speakers should consult with an addiction professional in their area to choose a drug rehabilitation program that provides rehabilitation services in their specific language.
