Individuals may become addicted to alcohol or drugs no matter their handicap or personal physical problem. This often makes people even more vulnerable to becoming involved in substance abuse, due to the varying issues that may be a factor in the individual's life. This is the case for people in the deaf and hearing impaired community as well, and treatment for substance abuse problems is often necessary. Deaf or hearing impaired people will require ASL or other assistance as part of their treatment needs, and there are drug rehab programs available throughout the Carefree area which specifically help fill these special needs. Skilled treatment counselors who understand the need for ASL and can supply other necessary assistance to deaf or hearing impaired substance abusers are readily available in numerous drug rehab facilities around Carefree and in the United States.
