Individuals can become addicted to alcohol or drugs despite a handicap or personal physical problem. This at times makes individuals even more vulnerable to becoming involved in drug or alcohol addiction, as a result of the varying issues that may be a factor in the individual's life. This is often a factor for people in the deaf and hearing impaired community as well, and drug rehab for substance abuse disorders is sometimes required. Deaf or hearing impaired people will need ASL or other help as part of their rehab program, and there are alcohol and drug rehabilitation centers accessible throughout the St. Louis, Michigan area which cater to these needs. Expert drug rehab counselors who know ASL and can supply other necessary help to deaf or hearing impaired addicted individuals are readily accessible in many drug rehab programs around St. Louis, Michigan and in the United States.
