Who We Are

DCC's Dream began in 1997 during a town hall meeting of Deaf, DeafBlind and Hard-of-Hearing community members. The main request, to create a living space accessible to the unique needs for Deaf, DeafBlind, and Hard-of-Hearing individuals.

Through many years of fundraising, several false starts and a mound of frustration, in 2022 DCCNM partnered with Sol Housing. Together after 25 years, that dream became possible!
