Deaf Culture

Deaf Culture Training

Deaf and hard of hearing communities have a vibrant and rich culture with an interesting history.

DSU provides consulting services on Deaf culture, communication styles, accommodations, and best practices to corporations, government agencies, and colleges and universities throughout the country. Consultation can be facilitated one-on-one, or in small group meetings, test groups, and trainings. These services are especially helpful in forging collaborative environments for Deaf and hearing people alike.

 

DSU is happy to offer our Training Solutions platform which allows businesses and organizations to provide Deaf Culture training to their employees through our online, video-based training platform.

For Deaf and hard of hearing individuals, culture and language intertwine, with language reflecting characteristics of culture.

As a result, the communication styles of many Deaf and hard of hearing individuals can be very different from communication styles used by hearing individuals. This consultation helps to bridge that gap and encourage understanding.

We’re making conversations happen.

Requesting a consultation through DSU is as simple as a phone call or click of the mouse.
