Individuals can become addicted to drugs or alcohol despite a handicap or particular physical problem. This sometimes makes individuals significantly more susceptible to getting involved in drug or alcohol addiction, as a result of the varying problems that may pop up in the perspon's life. This is often a factor for persons in the deaf and hearing impaired community also, and rehab for drug and alcohol abuse problems is often required. Deaf or hearing impaired individuals will need ASL or other assistance as part of their rehab needs, and there are drug rehab centers available throughout the Coon Rapids area which cater to these needs. Professional treatment counselors who understand the need for ASL and can offer other necessary assistance to deaf or hearing impaired addicted individuals are readily accessible in a number of drug and alcohol treatment facilities around Coon Rapids and in the country.
