AA Through Deaf Eyes Workshop Series Launches
We’re thrilled to announce the debut of AA Through Deaf Eyes, a new bimonthly workshop series designed by and for the Deaf AA community.
First Workshop: Welcome to AA — Deaf Perspective
Date: Saturday, October 10, 2026
Time: 4 PM Pacific | 5 PM Mountain | 6 PM Central | 7 PM Eastern
Zoom link coming soon on our website.
New to AA? Wondering how recovery works in Deaf spaces? Join three Deaf panelists with varied sobriety time as they share their paths into the program, what sponsorship looks like, how meetings flow, and how the Deaf AA community supports long-term sobriety.
Full ASL workshop with CDI-certified Deaf interpreter providing mirror recording. Can’t make it live? All workshop recordings are posted on our AA Through Deaf Eyes website for on-demand access: https://sites.google.com/view/d38tde/home
This series grew from community feedback. We surveyed Deaf folks across District 38 and heard clearly: we need workshops that speak our language and reflect our experience.
The full series runs through August 2027, diving into sponsorship, the Twelve Steps, long-term sobriety, family and relationships, and dual diagnosis.
(Open meeting) All welcome to attend
