Auckland Deaf Society is the Hub of the Deaf and NZSL community in Auckland.
Auckland
Deaf culture is the heart of Deaf communities around New Zealand. Auckland’s Deaf community is a cultural group which shares a language and a common heritage. The Auckland Deaf community, therefore, identify themselves as members of a cultural and linguistic group. Identification with the Deaf community is a personal choice. It is usually made independent of the individual’s hearing status, and the community is not automatically composed of all people who are Deaf or hard of hearing. Above all, members of the Auckland Deaf community are immensely proud to have a strong sense of pride and identity as a Deaf person using NZSL.
Your support will be immensely valuable to assist the Deaf Community in Auckland to support each other and grow the use of NZSL (NZ Sign Language)
We provide activities for the NZSL community including sports clubs, social events, NZSL classes, Deaf Awareness programmes, recreational and educational activities.
On March 22nd a team from Auckland Deaf Society Inc will be competing in the King Koil Great Auckland Bedrace in the Auckland Domain. Support our team! Your donation will help us continue to be a Sign Language Hub for the Deaf /Sign Language Community! Thank you!
