MISSION STATEMENT

The Laurent Clerc National Deaf Education Center (Clerc Center) at Gallaudet University comprises two federally mandated demonstration schools for students from birth through age 21 who are deaf. Its two demonstration schools on Gallaudet's campus work in collaboration with a network of exemplary programs and professionals to identify, research, develop, evaluate and disseminate innovative curricula, materials, educational strategies, and technologies for deaf and hard of hearing students. The Clerc Center also provides training and technical assistance to families and programs throughout the United States, and serves as a model individualized educational program, working in close partnership with our students and their families.
