Individuals may become addicted to drugs or alcohol despite a handicap or unique physical problem. This at times makes individuals particularly more vulnerable to becoming involved in substance abuse, due to the unique challenges that may be a factor in the individual's life. This is true for persons in the deaf and hearing impaired community also, and drug rehab for alcohol and drug abuse disorders is sometimes necessary. Deaf or hearing impaired persons often need ASL or other help as part of their rehab plan, and there are drug rehabilitation facilities accessible throughout the Devon area which specifically help fill these needs. Skilled treatment counselors who know ASL and can provide other essential assistance to deaf or hearing impaired addicted individuals are readily available in several drug and alcohol rehab centers around Devon and in the United States.
