We are Deaf and Hard of Hearing members of the National Action Network, a leading civil rights organization, we established the House of Justice (HOJ) Deaf Club to create an environment for active Deaf and Hard of Hearing participation. We are supported by NAN's Interpreter/Advocates Committee.
Our small group promotes equal opportunity and self reliance for Deaf and Hard of Hearing people through Voter Registration Drives, Deaf History forums, Domestic and Police Brutality forums and accessibility to medical care.
We make ourselves available to anyone in need of assistance who think their rights have been violated due to deafness.
Membership is free. We collect no dues and only ask that our members actively volunteer their services in carrying out our mission. We are committed to the goals for economic, educational and basic equality of rights. All workshops and forums are free and open to the public.
