Individuals may become addicted to alcohol or drugs despite a handicap or unique physical problem. This often makes individuals even more vulnerable to becoming involved in substance abuse, as a result of the unique challenges that this can bring in the individual's life. This is often a factor for persons in the deaf and hearing impaired community as well, and drug rehab for alcohol and drug abuse problems is sometimes required. Deaf or hearing impaired persons often require ASL or other help as part of their treatment needs, and there are drug rehabilitation centers available throughout the Weskan, KS. area which specifically help fill these needs. Skilled drug rehab counselors who understand the need for ASL and can offer other necessary assistance to deaf or hearing impaired substance abusers are readily available in numerous drug and alcohol treatment facilities around Weskan, KS. and in the country.
