dc.description.notesProvides an overview of the development of the Abused Deaf Women’s Advocacy Service (ADWAS), the first and only agency in the United States set up by, and specifically run for, deaf and deaf-blind victims of sexual assault and domestic violence. Since its establishment, ADWAS has initiated a 24-hour TTY hotline, provided advocacy and education services and set up safe houses and legal and counselling services tailored to the needs of the deaf and deaf-blind community. Argues that the success of and demand for services provided by ADWAS demonstrate a need for nation-wide initiatives in the area.en
