People can become addicted to drugs no matter their handicap or unique physical issue. This often makes persons significantly more vulnerable to getting involved in substance abuse, because of the unique issues that this can bring in the individual's life. This is often a factor for people in the deaf and hearing impaired community as well, and drug rehab for substance abuse problems is often required. Deaf or hearing impaired people often need ASL or other support as part of their drug rehab plan, and there are alcohol and drug rehab centers available throughout the St. Leonard area which cater to these needs. Expert treatment counselors who know ASL and can provide other necessary help to deaf or hearing impaired substance abusers are readily available in many drug and alcohol treatment centers around St. Leonard and in the country.
