"Substance Abuse is a wretched disease and knowing 35%
of those who are hearing impaired are substance
abusers, we can no longer turn our backs on this
population. Dr. Lala's book, needed and long overdue
in our fields, offers vital groundbreaking material.
In its thoroughness it is empowering to our
professional fields of mental health, addiction, and
disabilities" - Claudia Black, Ph.D., Author,
It will Never Happen to Me, and Changing Course.
