Men and women may become addicted to drugs despite a handicap or personal physical problem. This sometimes makes people particularly more susceptible 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 as well, and treatment for substance abuse issues is sometimes necessary. Deaf or hearing impaired people will require ASL or other assistance as part of their drug rehab plan, and there are drug treatment centers available throughout the Lake Montezuma area which cater to these needs. Expert drug rehab counselors who know ASL and can supply other necessary help to deaf or hearing impaired substance abusers are readily available in several drug and alcohol rehab centers around Lake Montezuma and in the country.
