At Ayuda Legal Puerto Rico, we decided to renovate our commitment to the deaf community by expanding outreach regarding legal services that ensure housing justice and displacement protections for these families. We also intend to integrate sign language interpretation into our social media programming and most workshops. Aware of the impact of inequality and rights violations on the deaf community, making legal education and support accessible and available is our responsibility as advocates.
Since mid-2022, we have been identifying resources to engage in these initiatives. We need more resources to hire interpreters to translate educational content and support our client intake processes and legal representation. Moreover, we need long-term commitments with donations directed to accessibility. Your support is urgent and essential.
As we revamp this GG project, we ask you to donate and spread the word!
