Host: Welcome to Ability Anyware Radio. This is a disability advocacy podcast. Today is Saturday, November 24, 2018. In this issue of Ability Anyware Digital Quarterly Winter 2018 publication, Deaf Kids Code in our STELLAR! section.

Deaf Kids Code, our STELLAR feature this issue, is an organization founded by Shireen
Hafeez that "promotes technology, computer science, and design
thinking skills as an innovative tool to empower deaf/ hard of hearing students socially and
economically."

Deaf Kids Code is doing phenomenal and unprecedented work in fostering greater inclusion
and empowerment of Deaf youth in the study of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics).

"According to the CDC, people who are deaf/ hard of hearing are at high risk
of unemployment or chronic underemployment at a rate of 70% or more
nationally."

Deaf Kids Code understands the ramifications of this data and is taking substantive
steps to provide quality educational and interactive workshops for Deaf students in K-12 schools.
