Timeline of History + Development of the Deaf Outreach Program at LRI
The program started in 2010. Harry Barnum, was recruited by LRI as the Program’s coordinator. At the beginning, only 7 deaf individuals participated in the program, but soon enough, word of mouth spread amongst the Deaf community and participation grew from 7 to over 100 individuals in just 2 years. However, in order to learn about our stakeholders, the Deaf community at LRI, we needed to better our understanding of the Deaf community at large. In our design research phase, we conducted both external research and primary research.
