Men and women can become addicted to alcohol or drugs no matter their handicap or personal physical issue. This often makes people particularly more susceptible to getting involved in drug or alcohol addiction, because of the varying issues that this can bring in the individual's life. This is true for people in the deaf and hearing impaired community also, and rehab for alcohol and drug abuse problems is often essential. Deaf or hearing impaired individuals will need ASL or other support as part of their treatment needs, and there are drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs available throughout the Conrad area which cater to these special needs. Professional drug rehab counselors who know ASL and can provide other essential help to deaf or hearing impaired addicted individuals are readily available in many drug treatment centers around Conrad and in the country.
