Who We Serve
ARES serves all Deaf, Hard of Hearing, and Late-Deafened individuals 18 and up, without regard to race, color, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, disability, language, religion, income, or immigration status. Our offices in Watertown, Hyannis, Lawrence, New Bedford, and Salem serve 180+ towns in five regions across Eastern Massachusetts.
You will be paired with an ARES Advocate from the region that serves your town of residence or employment. This map below shows the areas served by each regional office.
The list of towns/cities served by ARES is available here. If your town is not listed, please contact us for information about where you can access similar services that serve your area. Please note that other DEAF, Inc. programs may have different service areas.
ARES services are free to consumers, supported by private, city, state, and federal grants and contracts, and donations.
