Vicdeaf - support for deaf adults in Victoria.

VICDEAF'S VISION

What is Vicdeaf?

The Victorian Deaf Society (Vicdeaf), is a non-profit organisation. It was established in 1884 and is the primary source of reference, referral, advice and support for deaf adults in Victoria. Vicdeaf works collaboratively with a variety of mental health, legal and employment providers, welfare agencies and government departments.

MISSION:

Vicdeaf aims to improve the quality of life for deaf people*. It does this by:

1. Breaking down communication barriers and improving access to services.

2. Increasing the status and participation of deaf people in society.

3. Providing specialist support and community services.

* Used with a lower case “d”, the term “deaf” includes all who are hard of hearing, hearing impaired or signing deaf.
