Individuals may become addicted to drugs or alcohol despite a handicap or personal physical challenge. This sometimes makes persons particularly more susceptible to becoming involved in alcohol or drug addiction, as a result of the various challenges that this can bring in the individual's life. This is true for individuals in the deaf and hearing impaired community as well, and rehab for drug and alcohol abuse problems is often required. Deaf or hearing impaired people will need ASL or other assistance as part of their treatment plan, and there are drug rehab programs available throughout the Stanaford, West Virginia area which cater to these special needs. Skilled treatment counselors who know ASL and can provide other essential help to deaf or hearing impaired substance abusers are readily available in several drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities around Stanaford, West Virginia and in the country.
