Mission

The West Virginia Commission for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing (WVCDHH) serves as a communication bridge between hearing persons and those who are deaf or hard of hearing. WVCDHH works toward an environment in which Deaf and Hard of Hearing West Virginians of all ages have equal opportunity to participate fully as active, responsible, productive, and independent citizens.

WVCDHH was established in 1989 by the West Virginia Legislature, with the intent that it will break down barriers, promote independence, and provide access to services for those who are "Deaf and Hard of Hearing." This is accomplished by the many programs, projects, and workshops that WVCDHH provides as well as being a liaison for interpreting services.
