Abstract

The purpose of this project is to develop a comprehensive Deaf and Hard of Hearing curriculum in partnership with Humboldt County Transition Age Youth Collaboration (HCTAYC) and their Youth Advisory Board (YAB). This curriculum targets Humboldt County service providers who work for social services, child welfare, public health, and mental health. HCTAYC will use this curriculum as a training for service professionals to enhance cultural awareness of the Deaf and Hard of Hearing community. Advisors/Committee Members: Abarca, Cesar.
