Men and women may become addicted to drugs or alcohol no matter their handicap or personal physical problem. This often makes persons even more susceptible to becoming involved in alcohol or drug addiction, due to the unique issues that this can bring in the individual's life. This is true for individuals in the deaf and hearing impaired community also, and drug rehab for alcohol and drug abuse problems is often necessary. Deaf or hearing impaired people often require ASL or other support as part of their rehab plan, and there are alcohol and drug treatment facilities accessible throughout the Yuma area which specifically help fill these needs. Skilled drug rehab counselors who know ASL and can supply other necessary help to deaf or hearing impaired substance abusers are readily available in a number of drug treatment facilities around Yuma and in the United States.
