ACCESS, AWARENESS, AND ACHIEVEMENT

We love what we do

Founded in 1977, DEAF, Inc. is the only Massachusetts community-based, multi-service nonprofit run by and for Deaf (Deaf, DeafBlind, Hard of Hearing, and Late-Deafened) adults.

We offer educational programs; health literacy, access and support services; independent living programs, information and referrals; advocacy; and accessibility services in a Deaf-affirmative environment.

People come to DEAF, Inc. to develop skills, learn about the benefits and services available to them here and in the wider community to improve their health, develop their economic stability and personal independence in order to become fully participating members of the larger community through education, employment, and community and political involvement.
