Deaf Awareness Week

Post submitted by Caitlin, Student Experience Ambassador

Deaf Awareness Week serves as a poignant reminder to embrace diversity and foster understanding within our communities. This year, Deaf Awareness Week takes place from 6^th May-12^th May. This annual observance empowers us to recognize the challenges faced by individuals who are deaf or hard of hearing, while also celebrating their unique perspectives and contributions. Through education, advocacy and empathy, we can break down barriers and promote inclusivity in all aspects of society. It’s a time to amplify awareness, learn sign language and champion accessibility initiatives.
