Addiction rehabilitation services are accessible in languages other than English from rehab facilities with bilingual staff and from addiction treatment informational groups and services offered in other languages. Substance abuse rehabilitation facilities in May which provide treatment services in other languages will give group counseling or therapy in those languages, and may have either hard copy or digital educational materials accessible in those languages as well. The most prevalent "other-language" programs available are Spanish treatment services, because Spanish speaking clients represent the highest number of other language speaking individuals needing rehabilitation. There are treatment locator tools that you can find online at https://findtreatment.samhsa.gov/
Attending such a program when English is not your native tongue can be beneficial for more than just challenges with language and communicating, because there are also cultural differences and other things to consider. When providing rehabilitation for someone who speaks another language the facility staff must not only be able to communicate with them clearly and freely, but also understand their culture, background, and specific beliefs and values that should be taken into consideration when attempting to resolve their addiction problem. Someone in search of a rehab program delivered in other languages will want to make certain the facility has staff that are capable of performing rehabilitation services in their native language but who are also capable of identifying and understanding their culture and heritage.
