People may become addicted to drugs or alcohol no matter their handicap or unique physical problem. This sometimes makes persons significantly more susceptible to becoming involved in alcohol or drug addiction, as a result of the unique challenges that this can bring in the perspon's life. This is true for individuals in the deaf and hearing impaired community as well, and drug rehab for alcohol and drug abuse disorders is often needed. Deaf or hearing impaired persons often need ASL or other support as part of their rehab needs, and there are drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities accessible throughout the Fairview area which specifically help fill these special needs. Expert treatment counselors who understand the need for ASL and can supply other essential help to deaf or hearing impaired substance abusers are readily available in a number of drug treatment facilities around Fairview and in the country.
