The Power of Community
What began as an unexpected challenge became a powerful demonstration of what our community can accomplish when we come together with shared purpose and determination.
In just eight days, these volunteers secured venues, coordinated logistics, built this website, organized presentations, and created a welcoming space for hundreds of Deaf leaders from across the nation.
Their dedication reminds us that the strength of our community lies not in any single organization, but in the collective spirit of individuals willing to serve.
