People can become addicted to alcohol or drugs no matter their handicap or particular physical issue. This sometimes makes individuals even more vulnerable to getting involved in substance abuse, because of the various issues that may pop up in the perspon's life. This is the case for people in the deaf and hearing impaired community also, and treatment for alcohol and drug abuse problems is often essential. Deaf or hearing impaired individuals often require ASL or other support as part of their treatment needs, and there are drug and alcohol treatment programs available throughout the Red Rock area which cater to these special needs. Professional drug rehab counselors who understand the need for ASL and can supply other necessary assistance to deaf or hearing impaired addicted individuals are readily available in many drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities around Red Rock and in the country.
