Welcome to the National Black Deaf Advocates (NBDA) Web site. NBDA
is the official voice of Black deaf and hard of hearing Americans—a
community that has historically been neglected in terms of provision
of equal access to education, employment and social services.
For more than two decades, NBDA has been at the forefront of the
struggle for access, and equity for Black deaf and hard of hearing
people. NBDA's objective is to provide advocacy intended to remedy
past injustices and to stake a share of the American dream for its
members and their families. We welcome your support and partnership
and hope that your navigation through our Web site will be enlightening.
