Institute of Deaf-Mutes

The Institute of Deaf-Mutes was an organization dedicated to supporting individuals who are deaf or hard of hearing, focusing on education, communication, and rehabilitation. Historically established to provide specialized training and resources, it aimed to integrate deaf individuals into society by fostering language development and independence. Over time, its role expanded to include research and advocacy for deaf rights, promoting awareness and accessibility. Today, such institutions have evolved into broader deaf education and community organizations, emphasizing inclusivity, sign language, and equal opportunities for deaf and hard-of-hearing people.
