People can become addicted to drugs no matter their handicap or particular physical problem. This sometimes makes persons significantly more susceptible to getting involved in substance abuse, due to the unique challenges that may pop up in the perspon's life. This is the case for people in the deaf and hearing impaired community also, and drug rehab for drug and alcohol abuse issues is often necessary. Deaf or hearing impaired persons will require ASL or other help as part of their rehab needs, and there are alcohol and drug rehabilitation facilities available throughout the Heber, California area which specifically help fill these special needs. Skilled drug rehab counselors who understand the need for ASL and can offer other necessary assistance to deaf or hearing impaired substance abusers are readily accessible in a number of drug and alcohol treatment programs around Heber and in the country.
