About us
About the Irish Deaf Youth Association
Deaf young people should be able to develop friendships, express their opinions, pursue education, participate in community life and explore their ambitions without unnecessary communication barriers.
Who we are
The Irish Deaf Youth Association is an organisation whose public identity relates to Deaf youth in Ireland, based in Portlaoise, Co. Laois.
What we stand for
Dignity, inclusion, cultural respect, communication access, and the individuality of every young person.
Why representation matters
We recognise the importance of Deaf-led perspectives and the need for young people to help shape the decisions that affect them.
Organisational responsibility
We aim to be transparent, safeguard young people, and only publish information that has been verified.
