Join poor, working & homeless, hearing & Deaf & Deaf-Blind people from around the US, Canada, Central & South America to learn about our basic Human Rights. Why do Deaf & Deaf-Blind people mostly get low-paying jobs? Why do doctors refuse to pay for interpreters? Why are Deaf & Deaf-Blind children given poor education? These are violations of our Human Rights. It's time to organize together & speak out!
The Deaf & Deaf-Blind Committee on Human Rights, based in Northeast Ohio, will send a group to this historic event and participate in the USSF June 27 - July 1st. We encourage other Deaf, hard of hearing & Deaf-blind people and organizations to join us! There will be a workshop about Deaf & Deaf-Blind Human Rights on Saturday, June 30, 2007 at 11am. We will share our stories about Human Rights violations against Deaf & Deaf-Blind people and how to fight for our rights!
