About
Deaf-versity is a French NGO that champions the potential of the Deaf community. We are driven by a belief in the power of inclusion, working to advance Deaf rights, and promote educational opportunities. Our commitment translates into advocating for greater accessibility, fostering a supportive community where Deaf individuals thrive, and providing resources for personal and professional growth.
One significant initiative Deaf-versity undertakes is facilitating access to Gallaudet University for French Deaf individuals. Gallaudet, a renowned bilingual university specifically designed for Deaf and hard-of-hearing students, offers unparalleled opportunities. We support potential applicants through the application process, assist with navigating scholarships and financial aid, fostering a bridge between France and the rich, immersive learning environment at Gallaudet.
We believe all women can embrace who they are,
can define their future, and can change the world.
