The Laurent Clerc National Deaf Education Center is comprised of two federally
mandated demonstration schools for students from birth through age 21 who are
deaf. Located on the campus of Gallaudet University, these schools work in
collaboration with a national network of exemplary programs and professionals
to identify, research, develop, evaluate, and disseminate innovative curricula,
materials, educational strategies, and technologies for students who are deaf or
hard of hearing. 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 its
students and their families.
