Workshop

So, you work with the deaf! What about.......?

Doug Dittfurth

Many times interpreters are the sole source of information about general services available for persons who are deaf or hard of hearing persons in the community may know.  Be "in-the-know" for them by learning of all the services that Texas' DARS Office for Deaf and Hard of Hearing Services (DHHS) has to provide. You will be surprised at the plethora of programs and services this small office in Austin has to offer! You will leave this fun and informative presentation ready the next time someone says, "So you work with the deaf."
