Jewish Deaf Congress (JDC) is committed to enhancing the Jewish Deaf experience with educational and spiritual programs and technology. Jewish Deaf people and families want to access their rich heritage via American Sign Language. JDC needs funds to create videos of stories, traditions, and prayers, ensure access to Zoom services with interpreters and captions for families, upgrade its website with more resources and videos, and advocate and support local Jewish Deaf groups.
