Hoosier Black Deaf Advocates, Inc. (Hoosier BDA) is ecstatic to announce our upcoming educational conference focused on Deaf Awareness. The event will feature six esteemed guest speakers and four informative workshops, designed to provide valuable insights into the latest professional development aimed at enhancing awareness among professionals throughout the state of Indiana.

Your generous contributions will play a vital role in supporting Deaf youth who aspire to pursue higher education through the Dr. Laurene E. Simms Scholarship program.  Additionally, your support will enable us to invite Deaf leaders from across the nation to engage with Junior Black Deaf Advocates (Jr. BDA) students at the Indiana School for the Deaf.  This collaboration will facilitate enriching educational field trips and promote participation in the biennial National Black Deaf Advocates conference, particularly benefiting from the Youth Empowerment Summit (Y.E.S!) program.

Thank you for considering this opportunity to support the Deaf community and foster educational growth. This event is open to both Deaf and hearing allies, as well as communities, educators, parents, professionals, and students!
