National Deaf Youth Day was developed to recognize and bring together deaf and hard of hearing youth from schools for the deaf, mainstream programs, and universities. National Deaf Youth Day serves two purposes:
- To celebrate the unique identity of deaf and hard of hearing people and their accomplishments; and
- To promote the idea that deaf and hard of hearing youth can do anything.
