Addiction Treatment Services in Other Languages - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Gustavus, AK.

Drug and alcohol treatment services are offered in languages other than English from treatment facilities with bilingual staff and from addiction treatment informational services offered in other languages. Addiction treatment programs in Gustavus that deliver rehab services in other languages will hold group counseling or therapy in those languages, and will provide either hard copy or digital educational materials accessible in those languages as well. The most common "other-language" rehabs available are Spanish language rehab services, because Spanish speaking clients make up the highest percentage of other language speaking people in need of rehabilitation. There are treatment locator tools that you can find online at https://findtreatment.samhsa.gov/

Finding such a program when English is not your first language can be helpful for more than the challenges with verbal communication, because there are also cultural/social differences and other things to consider. When treating someone who speaks another language the treatment staff must not only be able to communicate with them easily and freely, but also identify with their culture, social customs, background, and specific beliefs and values that should be taken into consideration when working to treat their addiction problem. Individuals in search of a rehab program delivered in other languages will want to ensure the facility has staff that are able to deliver services in their native language but who are also capable of identifying and understanding their culture and social customs.
