Advancing rights for the Deaf community
Empowering Deaf children and families across South Africa through education, advocacy, and access to South African Sign Language.

Late diagnosis creates lifelong barriers
Due to the lack of universal newborn hearing screening, many Deaf children are diagnosed late—often after 2 years of age—missing critical development windows.
Families lack access to SASL training, creating communication barriers. Schools face shortages of qualified interpreters and inclusive resources.
