Program accomplishments

  • Community Education and E Learning empowers Deaf, DeafBlind and Hard of hearing with opportunities to present their info, train others, and offer it in American Sign Language. This is called the Empowerment Series. Many in our community often do not have the space, support or training to advance their skills. DE provides this support. In addition, provides the E learning topics and education free of charge and accessible in their language (ASL, through Deaf Blind interpreters) in person or on zoom. Topics like Suicide awareness and prevention, Asian American Culture and Microaggressions, budgeting, how to present, breast cancer awareness are offered through captions or voice but never in ASL. Through this we also offer culture immersion experiences so people can increase their awareness working with diverse members of their community, for example. DeafBlind community Immersion, taught us how to guide, how to communicate with DeafBlind, and how to use Pro Tactile. Community Engagement Opportunities programs offer all ages youth to Seniors opportunity to engage in activities accessible to them. Some examples include Self-Defense, Family Friendly events such as Fall Adventures, Community Gathering, Cookout and Deaf Eco System fair. At these events, members are connected, it helps reduce isolation, share information supports mental health and well being and connects members of the community to resources that they need. These also include partnerships with hearing partners such a Twins for a baseball clinic for deaf youth and kids, Day Camp for D, DB, HH kid, family social for parents who are hearing with deaf kids and more. Advocacy, Training and Consultations has three hats. One is to provide direct services to our community for support that they need whether it is using the Deaf Community Health workers in our program to connect to housing, lawyers, free food shelfs services, or to requiring support advocating at the clinics for access or filing reports. We provide referral to our client and help them navigate the system. We also provide training and consultations to hearing service providers who do want to welcome deaf community members but do not have the skills to do so. We help assess, and provide them with skills they need to make change to welcome them.
