Men and women can 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 alcohol or drug addiction, because of the unique challenges that may pop up in the perspon's life. This is true for persons in the deaf and hearing impaired community as well, and treatment for drug and alcohol abuse problems is often essential. Deaf or hearing impaired individuals often need ASL or other assistance as part of their rehab needs, and there are alcohol and drug treatment programs available throughout the Huntington Woods, Michigan area which specifically help fill these special needs. Professional drug rehab counselors who understand the need for ASL and can offer other necessary assistance to deaf or hearing impaired substance abusers are readily available in a number of drug rehab facilities around Huntington Woods, Michigan and in the country.
