September is Deaf Awareness Month
September is Deaf Awareness Month in Missouri. DEAF Inc. has put together a few videos celebrating the richness of Deaf and Hard of Hearing Missourians and their cultures. Here is one of their videos that spot lights a famous Deaf Missourian, a graduate of Missouri School for the Deaf and a Hollywood superstar, CJ Jones!
We’re Glad to Be Back!
We are even more pleased to let you know that all of our programs and services are fully operational again. We remain committed to assuring the health and well-being of all Missourians as we work to address your assistive technology needs.
