Individuals can become addicted to drugs or alcohol no matter their handicap or personal physical challenge. This often makes people particularly more vulnerable to getting involved in substance abuse, due to the varying problems that may be a factor in the individual's life. This is true for persons in the deaf and hearing impaired community as well, and rehab for substance abuse problems is sometimes needed. Deaf or hearing impaired people will require ASL or other support as part of their treatment program, and there are drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities available throughout the New Alexandria, PA. area which cater to these needs. Professional treatment counselors who know ASL and can provide other crucial help to deaf or hearing impaired substance abusers are readily accessible in several drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities around New Alexandria, PA. and in the country.
