Individuals can become addicted to drugs or alcohol no matter their handicap or unique physical challenge. This at times makes individuals even more susceptible to getting involved in substance abuse, because of the various issues that may be a factor in the individual's life. This is the case for people in the deaf and hearing impaired community also, and drug rehab for drug and alcohol abuse disorders is often essential. Deaf or hearing impaired individuals will require ASL or other help as part of their treatment program, and there are alcohol and drug rehab facilities available throughout the Fords area which cater to these needs. Professional drug rehab counselors who know ASL and can offer other necessary assistance to deaf or hearing impaired substance abusers are readily available in several drug and alcohol treatment facilities around Fords and in the country.
