Men and women can become addicted to alcohol or drugs despite a handicap or unique physical challenge. This sometimes makes persons significantly more susceptible to becoming involved in drug or alcohol addiction, due to the unique issues that this can bring in the perspon's life. This is the case for persons in the deaf and hearing impaired community as well, and rehab for drug and alcohol abuse problems is sometimes necessary. Deaf or hearing impaired individuals often need ASL or other support as part of their rehab plan, and there are drug rehab facilities accessible throughout the Mercerville area which cater to these special 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 accessible in a number of drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers around Mercerville and around the nation.
