In Memorium

NMDC is looking for presentations that can help us all better understand the dynamics of disability-community organizing in Black communities. 

NMDC received the Unity Achievement Award from the New Jersey Human Relations Council for Outstanding Achievement by a Non-Profit Organization on November 17, 2009.  The New Jersey Human Relations Council promotes "prejudice reduction" education and addresses the problems of bias and violent acts based on the victim's race, color, religion, national origin, ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender or disability.

Members of the New Jersey Black Deaf Advocates (NJBDA), seek to inform ourselves and the larger community about the rights and responsibilities of Black Deaf citizens of New Jersey.
