Men and women can become addicted to alcohol or drugs despite a handicap or unique physical problem. This at times makes individuals even more susceptible to getting involved in substance abuse, due to the various issues that may be a factor in the individual's life. This is the case for individuals in the deaf and hearing impaired community also, and treatment for alcohol and drug abuse disorders is sometimes essential. Deaf or hearing impaired persons will need ASL or other support as part of their drug rehab needs, and there are drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities accessible throughout the Parkton area which specifically help fill these special needs. Professional treatment counselors who understand the need for ASL and can provide other essential help to deaf or hearing impaired substance abusers are readily accessible in many drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs around Parkton and in the United States.
