COMMUNITY
LEADERSHIP
​
The longstanding problems deaf communities face in education, employment, accessibility, and social outcomes clearly illustrate the critical need for community leadership. Long-term impact on deaf communities cannot be achieved without building local leadership capacity.
​
At Deaf Empowerment, we believe that when deaf people have opportunities to advance their skills and roles, they can create deeper, longer-lasting changes in their communities.
​
Our Approach
The Community Leadership Program provides deaf leaders the knowledge and opportunities for collaborative leadership skills. Participants have access to a global network of diverse leaders from multiple organizations and sectors who provide training on effective collaborations, engaging in innovative practices to address community-wide challenges, and on how to design and lead effective change.
​
Participants learn how to:
Form successful partnerships with local, national and international agencies
Accomplish goals through creative problem-solving
Prepare future generations of deaf leaders
