Jr. NAD

The Georgia Center of the Deaf and Hard of Hearing (GCDHH) is excited to announce the ongoing development of a Junior National Association of the Deaf (Jr. NAD) program, designed to empower young deaf and hard-of-hearing leaders through advocacy, education, and community engagement.

In collaboration with the Atlanta Area School for the Deaf (AASD) and the Georgia School for the Deaf (GSD), this initiative will provide students with opportunities to build skills, foster peer connections, and promote deaf culture across the state. Stay tuned for updates as we work to launch this transformative program!
