DSDHH wants to hear about communication problems you face in everyday life—at school, at work, in doctor's offices, at public events, or anywhere in North Carolina. Director Tony Davis will be there to learn directly from you. Your experiences help DSDHH understand what is happening in the community so we can work to fix these problems.

Deaf, Hard of Hearing, and DeafBlind community members, plus families, interpreters, and others, are all welcome.

ASL interpreters and CART will be available for everyone.
If you need another accommodation, please tell us and we will do our best to support you.

If you know someone who would want to come, please tell them about today’s session so they don’t miss it.
