ASDC strongly supports mental health care, especially for children, youth, teens, and young adults in the Deaf community. 

Each month we join with Signed by Stories for live, online conversations about the challenges our D/HH youth face in maintaining mental health wellness. These free conversations will feature Deaf/HH persons who have valuable experiences and perspectives about their mental health journey. Conversations may include professionals, parents, friends, and families who have lent support along the way.

Follow our social media channels or check out 

www.deafchildren.org/mental-health-resources/ and/or www. signedbystories.com for updated resources and upcoming conversations.

Hurry! The submission deadline is October 20th!
