People may become addicted to alcohol or drugs despite a handicap or unique physical challenge. This at times makes people particularly more susceptible to becoming involved in substance abuse, because of the varying challenges that may be a factor in the individual's life. This is true for individuals in the deaf and hearing impaired community as well, and drug rehab for drug and alcohol abuse disorders is often needed. Deaf or hearing impaired persons will need ASL or other help as part of their rehab needs, and there are drug and alcohol treatment programs available throughout the Lakeville, Connecticut area which cater to these special needs. Expert drug rehab counselors who know ASL and can provide other essential help to deaf or hearing impaired substance abusers are readily available in a number of drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs around Lakeville, Connecticut and in the country.
