Individuals can become addicted to alcohol or drugs no matter their handicap or personal physical challenge. This sometimes makes people particularly more susceptible to becoming involved in drug or alcohol addiction, due to the varying problems that may be a factor in the individual's life. This is the case for persons in the deaf and hearing impaired community also, and rehab for drug and alcohol abuse disorders is sometimes necessary. Deaf or hearing impaired people will need ASL or other support as part of their treatment plan, and there are drug and alcohol rehab facilities accessible throughout the Lancaster area which specifically help fill these special needs. Skilled drug rehab counselors who understand the need for ASL and can provide other crucial help to deaf or hearing impaired addicted individuals are readily accessible in a number of drug and alcohol treatment programs around Lancaster and in the country.
