Men and women can become addicted to alcohol or drugs despite a handicap or personal physical issue. This often makes individuals significantly more susceptible to getting involved in substance abuse, because of the unique problems that may be a factor in the individual's life. This is often a factor for persons in the deaf and hearing impaired community also, and rehab for alcohol and drug abuse disorders is sometimes necessary. Deaf or hearing impaired persons often require ASL or other assistance as part of their rehab plan, and there are drug and alcohol rehab programs available throughout the Stratton area which cater to these needs. Skilled drug rehab counselors who know ASL and can supply other essential help to deaf or hearing impaired substance abusers are readily accessible in many drug and alcohol rehab facilities around Stratton and in the country.
