People can become addicted to drugs despite a handicap or particular physical issue. This at times makes persons even more susceptible to getting involved in alcohol or drug addiction, because of the unique challenges that may pop up in the individual's life. This is the case for individuals in the deaf and hearing impaired community as well, and drug rehab for substance abuse issues is often required. Deaf or hearing impaired individuals will need ASL or other support as part of their rehab needs, and there are drug rehab centers available throughout the Zuni 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 available in numerous drug and alcohol treatment facilities around Zuni and in the United States.
