Deaf Self Advocacy Training Program
Spearheaded by Amanda Tuite,
Co-Founder & CEO at Access Vine
Deaf Self-Advocacy Training is a vital resource designed to empower individuals who are Deaf, hard-of-hearing, and DeafBlind. We equip participants with comprehensive skills, knowledge, and the confidence necessary to navigate the complexities of transitioning into employment. From mastering effective communication strategies to understanding their legal rights and leveraging assistive technologies, participants gain invaluable tools that foster independence and success in the workplace.
Our program goes beyond traditional training by fostering a supportive environment where personal growth is prioritized. Through interactive workshops and personalized guidance, we empower individuals to articulate their needs, advocate for accommodations, and thrive professionally. Whether embarking on a new career path or seeking advancement opportunities, our commitment remains steadfast in ensuring every participant achieves their career aspirations with confidence.
Deaf self-advocacy training is to promote self-advocacy skills and self-determination. These skills enable the individual to identify their needs and communicate them to others, as well as to access resources and services to which they are entitled.
Self-Esteem Building Tools
It's important to note that having high self-esteem does not mean that you always get what you want. However, it does mean that you are more likely to speak up for yourself and try to achieve your goals. Our training program helps young individuals boost their self-esteem and improve their emotional and mental well-being.
New Assistive Technology
The tech industry is always changing, and it's important to keep up with the latest communication advancements. Our training service helps you learn how to use new assistive technologies in different situations. We want to make sure everyone can take advantage of these cool new tools, so we offer comprehensive training to keep you in the know.
