Men and women may become addicted to drugs despite a handicap or personal physical issue. This at times makes persons even more susceptible to becoming involved in alcohol or drug addiction, as a result of the unique challenges that may pop up in the perspon's life. This is the case for people in the deaf and hearing impaired community as well, and rehab for drug and alcohol abuse disorders is often required. Deaf or hearing impaired persons often need ASL or other help as part of their drug rehab needs, and there are drug rehabilitation programs available throughout the Southborough area which specifically help fill these needs. Skilled treatment counselors who know ASL and can supply other essential help to deaf or hearing impaired substance abusers are readily available in many drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities around Southborough and in the country.
