Men and women can become addicted to alcohol or drugs despite a handicap or personal physical issue. This sometimes makes persons even more susceptible to becoming involved in drug or alcohol addiction, because of the unique problems that may pop up in the perspon's life. This is the case for individuals in the deaf and hearing impaired community as well, and rehab for drug and alcohol abuse issues is sometimes necessary. Deaf or hearing impaired people often need ASL or other help as part of their treatment plan, and there are drug and alcohol rehab facilities available throughout the Nipomo area which cater to these special needs. Expert treatment counselors who know ASL and can offer other necessary help to deaf or hearing impaired substance abusers are readily available in several drug rehab programs around Nipomo, CA. and in the country.
