About

In celebration of 20 years of NDPC, the National Deaf People of Color respectfully invites your organization to sponsor the 2027 National Deaf People of Color Conference. This national gathering will bring together Deaf, DeafBlind, hard of hearing, and signing Black, Indigenous, and People of Color for two days of learning, connection, celebration, and renewed leadership.

Our theme, “Recharge the Flame, Carry the Torch Forward,” honors NDPC’s history while creating space for present and emerging leaders, educators, artists, advocates, professionals, families, and community members. The conference will offer both in-person and virtual participation so that people across the country can take part.

In-person attendance will be limited to 250 participants to support an accessible and engaging experience. The virtual conference will accommodate up to 1,000 participants nationwide.
