Individuals can become addicted to alcohol or drugs despite a handicap or particular physical problem. This often makes people significantly 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 true for individuals in the deaf and hearing impaired community also, and rehab for drug and alcohol abuse issues is sometimes needed. Deaf or hearing impaired persons often need ASL or other help as part of their drug rehab plan, and there are drug rehab centers accessible throughout the South Dennis area which cater to these needs. Professional drug rehab counselors who understand the need for ASL and can offer other necessary assistance to deaf or hearing impaired substance abusers are readily available in several drug and alcohol treatment facilities around South Dennis and in the country.
