People can become addicted to alcohol or drugs no matter their handicap or particular physical problem. This at times makes persons particularly more vulnerable to getting involved in drug or alcohol addiction, due to the unique challenges that this can bring in the perspon's life. This is often a factor for people in the deaf and hearing impaired community as well, and rehab for drug and alcohol abuse issues is often needed. Deaf or hearing impaired people will need ASL or other help as part of their drug rehab needs, and there are drug rehab facilities available throughout the Huntington area which specifically help fill these needs. Professional treatment counselors who know ASL and can provide other necessary help to deaf or hearing impaired addicted individuals are readily available in a number of drug rehab programs around Huntington and in the country.
