People can become addicted to drugs despite a handicap or personal physical challenge. This sometimes makes people significantly more susceptible to getting involved in substance abuse, as a result of the varying problems that may be a factor in the individual's life. This is often a factor for people in the deaf and hearing impaired community also, and treatment for alcohol and drug abuse issues is sometimes required. Deaf or hearing impaired people will need ASL or other assistance as part of their treatment plan, and there are drug rehab programs accessible throughout the West Newbury, VT. area which specifically help fill these special needs. Professional drug rehab counselors who understand the need for ASL and can offer other necessary help to deaf or hearing impaired substance abusers are readily accessible in many drug and alcohol rehab centers around West Newbury, VT. and in the country.
