People can become addicted to drugs despite a handicap or particular physical problem. This often makes persons even more susceptible to getting involved in substance abuse, because of the various problems that may be a factor in the perspon's life. This is true for persons in the deaf and hearing impaired community also, and treatment for alcohol and drug abuse disorders is sometimes needed. Deaf or hearing impaired people often require ASL or other support as part of their drug rehab program, and there are drug treatment centers accessible throughout the Floral Park area which specifically help fill these needs. Professional drug rehab counselors who understand the need for ASL and can provide other necessary assistance to deaf or hearing impaired addicted individuals are readily available in a number of drug and alcohol treatment centers around Floral Park and in the United States.
