  • The Laurent Clerc National Deaf Education Center at Gallaudet University is a federally funded center with exemplary elementary and secondary education programs for deaf and hard of hearing students and is tasked with developing and disseminating innovative curricula, instructional techniques, and products nationwide while providing information, training, and technical assistance for parents and professionals to meet the needs of deaf and hard of hearing students from birth to age 21.

    Our Early Intervention team’s ambitious goal is to end language deprivation for deaf and hard of hearing students. Along with our REAL partners, we work every day to ensure deaf and hard of hearing infants and toddlers have full access to American Sign Language and English.
