Register Now for Deaf, DeafBlind and Hard of Hearing Lobby Day!

The Deaf, DeafBlind and Hard of Hearing Lobby Day will be on March 6th, 2013

Lobby Day is a chance for everyday Minnesota citizens to stand up and advocate for the concerns of the Deaf, DeafBlind and Hard of Hearing. It provides people like you a chance to participate in the legislative process and speak up about concerns close to them. Legislators cannot know the importance of these issues unless they ‘hear’ from you. Your stories and testimonies are what make a difference.

Deaf, DeafBlind and Hard of Hearing Lobby Day is not only an excellent advocacy opportunity, it is a chance to meet other citizen activists, to learn about the legislative issues that affect our needs and to unite as a community.

Registration is free, but is required in order for us to schedule accomodations and legislative meetings for you. Use the embedded form below, or our registration page. 

If you have any questions or problems, feel free to contact us.

Our goal is to create a more informed and engaged deaf community. Our new website is only the start of this process.  We hope to continue to upgrade the website to make it easier to use, to be more inclusive and more strongly responsive to the needs of our members. 

Community and advocacy do not happen alone. It requires your help and participation.  We ask you to provide your input, feedback and support. Please let us know what we are doing right, what we are doing wrong, and how we can do better. Toward this end, we are asking for:
