This brief explores the following root causes of the gaps in postsecondary outcomes for deaf people. (a) Limited Access to Language and Communication: Deaf individuals of all ages experience limited access to language and communication in the home, at school, in the community, and in the workplace. (b) Reduced Social Opportunities: Many deaf individuals face barriers to communication at home and at school. This reduced access to a rich social environment has an impact on opportunities to build networks critical for future success. (c) Negative Attitudes and Biases: High expectations are critical to the support of successful postsecondary outcomes for deaf individuals. Negative attitudes and "the tyranny of low expectations" serve as a persistent barrier to post school success. (d) Lack of Qualified and Experienced Professionals: Experienced professionals who understand the range of communication preferences, disabilities, family contexts, educational experiences, and so forth are critical components of effective interventions and support. ; This document was developed under a grant from the U.S. Department of Education, OSEP #HD326D160001.
