Men and women can become addicted to drugs or alcohol despite a handicap or personal physical issue. This often makes persons particularly more susceptible to getting involved in drug or alcohol addiction, due to the unique challenges that may pop up in the perspon's life. This is often a factor for persons in the deaf and hearing impaired community also, and rehab for drug and alcohol abuse problems is often needed. Deaf or hearing impaired persons will require ASL or other support as part of their treatment needs, and there are alcohol and drug treatment centers available throughout the Prospect Harbor, ME. area which cater to these special needs. Skilled treatment counselors who understand the need for ASL and can offer other necessary help to deaf or hearing impaired substance abusers are readily available in several drug and alcohol treatment facilities around Prospect Harbor, ME. and in the United States.
