People can become addicted to drugs despite a handicap or particular physical issue. This at times makes individuals particularly more vulnerable to becoming involved in alcohol or drug addiction, because of the various challenges that may pop up in the perspon's life. This is the case for people in the deaf and hearing impaired community as well, and rehab for alcohol and drug abuse problems is sometimes necessary. Deaf or hearing impaired persons often require ASL or other help as part of their treatment plan, and there are drug rehabilitation programs available throughout the Midway area which specifically help fill these needs. Skilled drug rehab counselors who understand the need for ASL and can supply other essential assistance to deaf or hearing impaired substance abusers are readily available in many drug rehab programs around Midway and in the country.
