Individuals can become addicted to alcohol or drugs despite a handicap or unique physical problem. This at times makes people particularly more susceptible to becoming involved in substance abuse, due to the unique issues that may be a factor in the individual's life. This is the case for individuals in the deaf and hearing impaired community also, and drug rehab for drug and alcohol abuse issues is sometimes required. Deaf or hearing impaired people often require ASL or other support as part of their rehab program, and there are drug rehabilitation facilities available throughout the Ocklawaha area which cater to these special needs. Skilled treatment counselors who know ASL and can supply other essential assistance to deaf or hearing impaired addicted individuals are readily available in many drug treatment centers around Ocklawaha and in the United States.
