Men and women can become addicted to drugs despite a handicap or personal physical challenge. This sometimes makes people particularly more susceptible to becoming involved in substance abuse, because of the unique challenges 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 treatment for substance abuse problems is often necessary. Deaf or hearing impaired individuals often need ASL or other support as part of their rehab needs, and there are drug rehabilitation facilities accessible throughout the Middleburg area which cater to these special needs. Skilled drug rehab counselors who know ASL and can provide other necessary assistance to deaf or hearing impaired substance abusers are readily accessible in numerous drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities around Middleburg and around the nation.
