Spanish alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs in Lee can help an ever-growing percentage of the American population address higher than average rates of alcohol and drug abuse that Hispanic women and men face in this country. One of the biggest hurdles Hispanic people face while tackling substance abuse problems is the availability of facilities with program staff prepared to deliver treatment services in their language. Another obstacle is that fact that many Hispanic people may not even be an U.S. citizen, hence won't have health insurance coverage to cover the cost of rehabilitation, and many live below the poverty line so they cannot self-pay either.
Because many aspects of a drug and alcohol rehabilitation program revolve around one-on-one communication with physicians, therapists, etc. someone who doesn't speak English is immediately at a disadvantage at a treatment program where Spanish speaking services aren't available to them. But there are programs which offer Spanish language services and staff who can help them in their language. Luckily, many of these programs understand the financial challenges that these individuals also face, and offer rehab at little or no cost. Spanish substance abuse rehabilitation facilities are most often found in the densely populated areas of cities that Hispanics live in.
