To our Deaf community, interpreters, and families navigating disability every day—your access matters.

Sign language interpretation is not an extra; it is a bridge to understanding, participation, and dignity. When accessibility is honored, people thrive.

UPFAD stands for inclusion, respect, and equal access—for every family, every time. 🧩👩‍🦯👩‍🦼👩‍🦽🧏‍♀️🦮🫆🧍🏾‍♀️
