During National Week of Deaf People, Deaf Children Australia raised awareness of the assumptions people often make about deaf and hard of hearing people, and the impact those assumptions can have.
Deaf and hard of hearing young people and their families were invited to share their experiences on video, the wacky things people have assumed about them, how it made them feel, and the achievements they're most proud of. The stories collected showed that being deaf or hard of hearing isn't limiting, and that the myths that exist can create unnecessary barriers.
