Case Management

Individualized Service professionals at the Sanderson Community Center are trained to support individuals who are Deaf or Hard of Hearing to identify and obtain needed services from federal, state or county programs, teach independence and self-advocacy, and coordinate mental health counseling if needed. DSDHH has three Case Managers in Salt Lake City and one in St. George who are able to provide services in American Sign Language. All services are at no cost to individuals who are Deaf or Hard of Hearing and complete confidentiality is a top priority.
