"Piloting Signs of Safety: A Deaf-Accessible Therapy Toolkit for Alcohol Use Disorder and Trauma"

"Seeking Safety is an existing, present-focused, first-stage manualized treatment for trauma and addiction. Session content engages clients in themes relevant to addiction and trauma, and to help them learn a specific skill to target symptoms of both AUD and PTSD (e.g., Coping with Triggers, Asking for Help).~Signs of Safety is a culturally and linguistically Deaf-accessible toolkit to be used alongside Seeking Safety. The toolkit includes a therapist guide and population-specific client materials (e.g., visual handouts; ASL teaching stories on digital video). It is designed for Deaf/signing clinicians, as well as non-signing clinicians working with ASL interpreters."
