- Advocacy
Our advocacy program emphases on construing myths associated with Deafness and raising awareness on the Rights of Deaf people and their disability counterparts.
“I know what it’s like to be growing up, called ‘deaf and mute’ and ‘deaf and dumb.’ They’re words that are very degrading and demeaning to people who are deaf and hard of hearing. It’s almost… it’s almost libelous, if you want to say that”
-Marlee Matlin
- Mentorship
