People may become addicted to drugs or alcohol despite a handicap or personal physical problem. This at times makes individuals even more susceptible to getting involved in drug or alcohol addiction, because of the various problems that may pop up in the individual's life. This is the case for people in the deaf and hearing impaired community as well, and rehab for drug and alcohol abuse problems is often necessary. Deaf or hearing impaired individuals will need ASL or other help as part of their rehab plan, and there are alcohol and drug treatment facilities available throughout the Rackerby area which specifically help fill these needs. Professional drug rehab counselors who know ASL and can provide other necessary assistance to deaf or hearing impaired substance abusers are readily available in a number of drug and alcohol treatment programs around Rackerby and in the country.
