In 2022, StatsCan reported over 1.6 million people had a hearing disability. For women+ aged 15-44, the amount was 2.6%, while the percentage increased to 7.9% for women+ 45 years and over. One particular organization, DAWN Canada based in Montreal known for working to eliminate poverty, discrimination and violence against women and gender diverse individuals who are deaf or living with a disability. Their website is bursting with resources, studies, and ways to donate.<span class=\"white-space-pre\"> <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">We\u2019ve discussed the start of International Women\u2019s day, resources available to women+ in the deaf and hard of hearing community, and now it\u2019s time to highlight those in the workplace. On February 3, 2022, a Deaf woman named Shiran Zhavian from New York City graduated from her intensive forensic chemist training program under the United States Drug Enforcement Adminstration (DEA). This makes Shiran the first Deaf female forensic chemist to work for the DEA. Working in STEM is no small feat and we\u2019re delighted to share.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Is there anyone In your life you\u2019d like to highlight?<\/span><\/p>[\/et_pb_blurb][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What a joy to have not only World Hearing Day in March, but International Women\u2019s Day as well. 2026 International Women\u2019s Day that started in 1978 will take place this Sunday on March 8th.
