About DSC

Deaf Service Center of SW Florida

Working to empower Southwest Florida's

deaf and hard of hearing citizens and their families

through education, advocacy, and community involvement

 

 

 

The DSC staff works to empower deaf or hard of hearing clients who need assistance in overcoming communication barriers and accessing community resources.  This is accomplished through information exchange and referral to appropriate service providers throughout Southwest Florida.

 

The Deaf Service Center is considered a central source of information on Deafness, sign language, communication systems, interpreting, and adaptive equipment for deaf and hard of hearing individuals.

 

The DSC also provides information and advocacy related to the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), the Individuals with Disabilities Act (IDEA) and the Rehabilitation Act of 1973.
