"The woman who brings sound to a silent world": tribute to Deaf founder Duong Phuong Hanh of Vietnam's CED Deaf education center
A Ho Chi Minh City writer whose hearing was badly damaged by domestic violence describes turning to the Center for Research on Deaf Education (CED) to learn Vietnamese sign language, and pays tribute to its director and founder Duong Phuong Hanh, who is Deaf herself. For nearly two decades Hanh and the center have supported Deaf children and young people isolated by language barriers, building what the author calls a "second home" for the Deaf community.
