People can become addicted to drugs or alcohol despite a handicap or particular physical challenge. This at times makes people even more vulnerable to getting involved in substance abuse, due to the varying issues that this can bring in the individual's life. This is true for persons in the deaf and hearing impaired community also, and rehab for substance abuse issues is sometimes required. Deaf or hearing impaired people often need ASL or other assistance as part of their treatment program, and there are alcohol and drug rehab facilities available throughout the Colbert area which specifically help fill these special needs. Professional drug rehab counselors who know ASL and can supply other essential help to deaf or hearing impaired substance abusers are readily accessible in a number of drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers around Colbert and in the country.
