Individuals can become addicted to drugs despite a handicap or unique physical challenge. This at times makes persons significantly more susceptible to becoming involved in alcohol or drug addiction, as a result of the varying problems that may pop up in the individual's life. This is the case for people in the deaf and hearing impaired community also, and drug rehab for drug and alcohol abuse problems is often required. Deaf or hearing impaired persons often need ASL or other support as part of their rehab needs, and there are drug and alcohol rehab centers available throughout the Stephenville area which specifically help fill these special needs. Skilled treatment counselors who know ASL and can supply other necessary help to deaf or hearing impaired addicted individuals are readily accessible in numerous drug and alcohol treatment facilities around Stephenville and in the United States.
