Individuals may become addicted to alcohol or drugs despite a handicap or particular physical problem. This at times makes individuals particularly more vulnerable to getting involved in substance abuse, because of the varying problems that may be a factor in the individual's life. This is often a factor for people in the deaf and hearing impaired community also, and drug rehab for drug and alcohol abuse problems is often needed. Deaf or hearing impaired people will require ASL or other assistance as part of their rehab needs, and there are alcohol and drug treatment facilities available throughout the Rosharon area which cater to these needs. Expert treatment counselors who understand the need for ASL and can supply other necessary assistance to deaf or hearing impaired substance abusers are readily available in many drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers around Rosharon and around the nation.
