Deaf Education has been shaped by generations of Deaf individuals, families, educators, advocates, and professionals who challenged limitations, advanced access, and created new possibilities.
Understanding where weโve been helps us recognize how far weโve come, learn from the moments that shaped our field, and continue asking an important question:
