Men and women can become addicted to drugs or alcohol despite a handicap or personal physical problem. This at times makes persons particularly more vulnerable to becoming involved in drug or alcohol addiction, because of the various challenges that may pop up in the individual's life. This is often a factor for individuals in the deaf and hearing impaired community as well, and rehab for drug and alcohol abuse issues is often necessary. Deaf or hearing impaired people will need ASL or other help as part of their drug rehab needs, and there are drug treatment programs accessible throughout the Worcester, VT. area which specifically help fill these needs. Professional treatment counselors who understand the need for ASL and can provide other necessary help to deaf or hearing impaired addicted individuals are readily accessible in several drug treatment programs around Worcester, VT. and in the country.
