Men and women may become addicted to drugs despite a handicap or particular physical challenge. This sometimes makes individuals particularly more vulnerable to becoming involved in alcohol or drug addiction, due to the varying problems that this can bring in the individual's life. This is true for persons in the deaf and hearing impaired community as well, and rehab for drug and alcohol abuse issues is sometimes required. Deaf or hearing impaired people often need ASL or other assistance as part of their rehab program, and there are drug rehab programs available throughout the Malad, ID. area which specifically help fill these special needs. Skilled drug rehab counselors who understand the need for ASL and can offer other necessary help to deaf or hearing impaired substance abusers are readily available in a number of drug and alcohol treatment facilities around Malad, ID. and in the United States.
