People may become addicted to drugs despite a handicap or particular physical challenge. This at times makes individuals even more susceptible to getting involved in drug or alcohol addiction, because of the varying problems that may pop up in the perspon's life. This is often a factor for people in the deaf and hearing impaired community also, and rehab for drug and alcohol abuse disorders is sometimes necessary. Deaf or hearing impaired individuals often need ASL or other support as part of their rehab needs, and there are alcohol and drug rehabilitation facilities available throughout the Georgetown area which cater to these needs. Skilled treatment counselors who know ASL and can provide other necessary assistance to deaf or hearing impaired addicted individuals are readily available in several drug rehabilitation facilities around Georgetown and in the country.
