The National Black Deaf Advocates is a nonprofit organization based in Washington, DC, founded in 1982 to represent and advocate for Black Deaf and hard of hearing people in the United States. It aims to promote leadership development and expand opportunities in education, economics, social equality, and overall health and welfare for its community, addressing gaps in representation in leadership and policy decision-making. The organization serves Black Deaf and hard of hearing individuals and focuses on advancing their access to resources and participation in broader civic and social systems within the nonprofit sector. As a targeted advocacy group, NBDA operates within the nonprofit landscape to support its constituents through strategic initiatives and community engagement. The current scope is consistent with an organization dedicated to empowerment, advocacy, and support for a historically underrepresented demographic within the Deaf community.
