The
Junior NAD, a program of the NAD, offers deaf and hard of hearing
students in 7th through 12th grade opportunities to develop leadership
skills, learn and demonstrate citizenship, and meet and interact with
students from other schools and states. Students can participate in the
Junior NAD by joining chapters established by their schools.
Junior
NAD chapters focus on advocacy, attitude, awareness, commitment,
cooperation, friendship, information exchange, involvement and
leadership skills. Chapters have meetings and participate in many
activities such as community events and fundraisers. Skills and values
obtained by chapter members during these meetings and events will help
them to become future leaders and advocates in the deaf and hard of
hearing community.
If you
would like to establish a Junior NAD chapter in your school, please use the
contact us form on the NAD home page,
www.nad.org/contact. We will send you a new chapter kit which includes a
Junior NAD Membership Form.
Existing
chapters can use the Junior NAD Membership Form to renew their member dues.
Each chapter must have at least four members and two advisors to remain
active. The Chapter fee is $100.00. Individual email and home addresses
should be listed on the form for each member and advisor so that they will
recieve periodic newsletters and announcements.
