Safety Net!
At DHCC, we’re working to make sure our community members have the best options possible. For many, they often don’t have access to safety net services such as food banks, domestic violence shelters, and health services. We want to find out why!
Help us by visiting DHCC.org/safetynet and registering for a focus group session. Participants that are chosen will be paid $100 for their time!
About Us
DHCC is the best place in the Philadelphia area to learn about and obtain equal communication access. We offer a variety of services to help bridge the communication gap between the Deaf, hard of hearing and hearing communities. We are honored to be the longest serving and highly respected sign language interpreting service in the region and the first organization to provide an on-call Emergency Sign Language Interpreting Service for police and hospital emergencies.
Mission
Our mission is to advocate for and promote equal communication access, educational service, cultural awareness and economic development to the Deaf, DeafBlind, and hard of hearing populations in the greater Philadelphia region and surrounding areas.
Get Involved
We’re always looking for partners in our community. If your business, organization or foundation wants to better engage the local deaf community and help make a difference, contact us. We’d love to talk more about how we can work together to make Philadelphia a more welcoming home for our deaf population.
