Men and women can become addicted to drugs or alcohol no matter their handicap or unique physical challenge. This sometimes makes persons even more susceptible to getting involved in substance abuse, as a result of the unique challenges that may pop up in the individual's life. This is true for persons in the deaf and hearing impaired community also, and drug rehab for alcohol and drug abuse disorders is sometimes necessary. Deaf or hearing impaired persons will require ASL or other help as part of their treatment program, and there are alcohol and drug rehab centers available throughout the Spring Lake area which specifically help fill these needs. Professional drug rehab counselors who understand the need for ASL and can provide other necessary assistance to deaf or hearing impaired substance abusers are readily accessible in many drug and alcohol treatment facilities around Spring Lake and around the nation.
