The SIGNS OF LIFE program with Deaf Community Services offers comprehensive outpatient drug and alcohol treatment for Deaf, Deaf-Blind, Late-Deafened, and Hard-of-Hearing adults. It is the only community-based substance abuse program in the San Diego area and one of only a handful across the nation that is designed specifically for Deaf and Hard-of-Hearing individuals.
SIGNS OF LIFE began in 1997 as a project of the McAlister Institute and the County of San Diego. Today, Deaf Community Services and the McAlister Institute continue to forge a strong partnership to ensure quality service provision to our clients.
