People may become addicted to alcohol or drugs despite a handicap or unique physical issue. This at times makes people particularly more vulnerable to becoming involved in drug or alcohol addiction, due to the unique issues that this can bring in the individual's life. This is the case for persons in the deaf and hearing impaired community as well, and treatment for alcohol and drug abuse problems is sometimes required. Deaf or hearing impaired people will need ASL or other assistance as part of their rehab program, and there are drug treatment programs available throughout the Limon area which cater to these special needs. Expert treatment counselors who know ASL and can offer other essential help to deaf or hearing impaired addicted individuals are readily accessible in numerous drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs around Limon and in the country.
