People may become addicted to drugs or alcohol despite a handicap or unique physical challenge. This often makes people even more vulnerable to getting involved in substance abuse, because of the various problems that this can bring in the individual's life. This is true for individuals in the deaf and hearing impaired community as well, and rehab for substance abuse issues is often needed. Deaf or hearing impaired people will need ASL or other support as part of their rehab program, and there are drug and alcohol treatment facilities accessible throughout the Holbrook, New York 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 numerous drug treatment centers around Holbrook, New York and in the country.
