Pepnet 2
Pepnet 2 (pn2) was a federally-funded project to increase the education, career, and lifetime choices available to individuals who are deaf or hard of hearing. Funding for the project ended in 2016. However, many of the resources created by this project are still available through DCMP.
In 2017 the National Deaf Center (NDC) launched. It’s mission is to close the substantial gaps in education and employment that exist for deaf people in the United States and its territories.
