Individuals may become addicted to alcohol or drugs no matter their handicap or particular physical problem. This sometimes makes individuals significantly more vulnerable to becoming involved in drug or alcohol addiction, because of the unique problems that may be a factor in the individual's life. This is often a factor for persons in the deaf and hearing impaired community as well, and rehab for alcohol and drug abuse problems is often required. Deaf or hearing impaired persons will require ASL or other help as part of their rehab program, and there are alcohol and drug treatment programs available throughout the Monticello, Minnesota area which cater to these special needs. Professional drug rehab counselors who understand the need for ASL and can offer other essential help to deaf or hearing impaired addicted individuals are readily accessible in a number of drug and alcohol rehab facilities around Monticello, Minnesota and in the country.
