Men and women may become addicted to drugs or alcohol despite a handicap or particular physical challenge. This often makes people particularly more vulnerable to becoming involved in substance abuse, because of the unique issues that may be a factor in the individual's life. This is often a factor for individuals in the deaf and hearing impaired community also, and rehab for drug and alcohol abuse issues is sometimes needed. Deaf or hearing impaired persons will need ASL or other help as part of their treatment needs, and there are drug rehab centers accessible throughout the Kismet area which specifically help fill these needs. Professional drug rehab counselors who know ASL and can provide other essential assistance to deaf or hearing impaired addicted individuals are readily available in many drug rehabilitation centers around Kismet and in the country.
