Men and women may become addicted to drugs or alcohol no matter their handicap or personal physical issue. This sometimes makes individuals particularly more susceptible to getting involved in drug or alcohol addiction, due to the various issues that may be a factor in the individual's life. This is often a factor for persons in the deaf and hearing impaired community as well, and treatment for alcohol and drug abuse issues is sometimes required. Deaf or hearing impaired individuals often need ASL or other assistance as part of their treatment needs, and there are drug treatment programs accessible throughout the Denmark area which cater to these special needs. Expert treatment counselors who know ASL and can supply other essential assistance to deaf or hearing impaired substance abusers are readily available in many drug treatment centers around Denmark and in the country.
