People may become addicted to alcohol or drugs no matter their handicap or particular physical problem. This often makes individuals significantly more susceptible to getting involved in substance abuse, as a result of the varying challenges that this can bring in the individual'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 problems is sometimes necessary. Deaf or hearing impaired people often require ASL or other support as part of their rehab needs, and there are alcohol and drug treatment facilities accessible throughout the Manchester area which specifically help fill these needs. Skilled treatment counselors who know ASL and can offer other necessary help to deaf or hearing impaired substance abusers are readily accessible in a number of drug rehabilitation facilities around Manchester and in the United States.
