Advocacy

CEASD is committed to improving educational outcomes for deaf and hard of hearing students nationally. Our advocacy work includes influencing policy, shaping public opinion and, promoting the organization’s mission that All Deaf Children Will Thrive.

Advocacy is essential in protecting the educational rights of deaf and hard of hearing students. At CEASD we work to ensure that deaf and hard of hearing students have equal access to educational resources, services and opportunities designed to meet their individual needs. We also believe in raising awareness about the unique challenges faced by our students and member schools among educators, policy makers, and the public.
