People may become addicted to alcohol or drugs despite a handicap or personal physical challenge. This sometimes makes individuals particularly more vulnerable to becoming involved in alcohol or drug addiction, because of the unique issues that may be a factor in the perspon's life. This is true for people in the deaf and hearing impaired community also, and treatment for alcohol and drug abuse disorders is sometimes required. Deaf or hearing impaired people will require ASL or other support as part of their treatment program, and there are drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities available throughout the Harvey, ND. area which specifically help fill these needs. Professional drug rehab counselors who know ASL and can provide other essential help to deaf or hearing impaired substance abusers are readily available in several drug and alcohol rehab facilities around Harvey, ND. and in the country.
