Join us for a deep dive into the evolving landscape of deaf education! We're exploring why deaf schools often align with major urban "megaregions" – and why we still desperately need them outside of those areas. Plus, we'll uncover the unique strengths of deaf education and culture in Utah.

This video features insights from my conversation with Akilah English, Director of the Deaf and Hard of Hearing program at DC Public Schools, who clarifies the role of DCPS with KDES/MSSD and their approach to inclusion. We'll also highlight Dr. Kimberly Ofori-Sanzo, a crucial hearing ally and Director of Language First. Finally, we'll tackle the groundbreaking idea of deaf schools embracing inclusion through deinstitutionalization.
