Dear Deaf Community,
This is regarding the recent arrest of a well‑known member of our Deaf community and the impact it has on all of us.
Deaf Colorado stands with you during this tragic and difficult time in our state. Please remember that you can reach out to DOVE [link to video | website] anytime you need support, safety, or guidance.
Deaf Colorado does not condone the behavior of individuals who misuse their professional roles or make promises that should never be made. This kind of behavior can affect anyone, both Deaf and hearing, but we know it can feel heavier in our community because our world is small and news travels fast.
Please be gentle with yourselves and with each other.
Please be kind.
Thank you,
Julie Riddle
Deaf Colorado President & Founder
