Men and women can become addicted to alcohol or drugs no matter their handicap or personal physical challenge. This often makes persons particularly more vulnerable to getting involved in drug or alcohol addiction, due to the unique challenges that may pop up in the individual's life. This is true 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 often need ASL or other support as part of their treatment plan, and there are drug treatment centers available throughout the Sargents area which cater to these special needs. Skilled treatment counselors who know ASL and can offer other necessary help to deaf or hearing impaired substance abusers are readily accessible in a number of drug rehab programs around Sargents and in the country.
