Greetings! On behalf of the Utah Association for the Deaf, I extend a warm hand of welcome to you. Welcome to the great state of Utah!

          The Utah Association for the Deaf, established in 1909, is one of the oldest state associations in the United States. Its first president was a woman, Elizabeth DeLong – and this was before women were granted the right to vote!
         The UAD has a long list of accomplishments of which we are proud. The UAD was responsible for the establishment of the Sanderson Community Center for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing, the Utah Interpreter Service, the Interpreting Training Program at Salt Lake Community College, the Utah Relay Service, and a bookstore with deaf and hard of hearing products. It supports organizations dealing with deaf children and young adults.The UAD Bulletin is published monthly with local news and informational articles.
         Two free email services are open to anyone who is interested. UAD Announce distributes news of interest to the Utah deaf and hard of hearing community, and CMoviesUtah gives a weekly listing of captioned movies showing in West Valley and Provo.
