Opening the door to...

INDEPENDENCE


Background

There are many temp agencies and placement firms for hearing people, but most do not specifically meet the needs of Deaf people. Even though agencies like BVR and Vocational Rehabilitation exist, they are dependent on government funding--which can create a lot of red tape and long wait times to obtain services. We would like to break that cycle for Deaf people by meeting their needs.

We believe that education that is not only specifically arranged for the Deaf, but also taught by the Deaf, is the key to their independence. We have created workshops and partnered with various agencies to provide ongoing classes and support for those individuals who want to work and who want to stop depending on Social Security benefits.

Mission

  • Help find livable employment opportunities for the deaf and hard of hearing
  • Provide training for the deaf
