DESK’s core strength is its excellent understanding of the people it serves and its practical approach to finding solutions to problems experienced by the Deaf and Hard of Hearing population. This strength is rooted in the fact that most of its staff is composed of professional persons with deafness with lots of anecdotal memoirs and testimonies of human rights abuses, personal experiences, and relevant education background which is harnessed throughout DESK programs.
