NVRC

Mission: To empower deaf and hard of hearing individuals and their families through education, advocacy and community involvement.

Established in 1988 and founded by local leaders in the deaf and hard of hearing community, the Northern Virginia Resource Center for Deaf and Hard of Hearing Persons exists to serve the deaf and hard of hearing community in Northern Virginia.

We are passionate about empowering deaf and hard of hearing persons and their families to positively change their lives through improved communication. The NVRC Board and staff are diverse and reflect the many facets of self identification. While our Board is required to have at least 51% of its Directors be deaf or hard of hearing, the overwhelming majority of the Board and staff are deaf or hard of hearing.
