Men and women may become addicted to alcohol or drugs despite a handicap or personal physical issue. This at times makes people particularly more susceptible to becoming involved in alcohol or drug addiction, as a result of the varying issues that may be a factor in the perspon's life. This is often a factor for people in the deaf and hearing impaired community also, and rehab for alcohol and drug abuse issues is sometimes necessary. Deaf or hearing impaired persons will require ASL or other assistance as part of their rehab program, and there are drug and alcohol rehab programs available throughout the Jamestown, New Mexico area which cater to these needs. Professional drug rehab counselors who know ASL and can supply other necessary assistance to deaf or hearing impaired substance abusers are readily accessible in numerous drug rehab centers around Jamestown, New Mexico and in the United States.
