The deaf gay community is so large that it has its own web sites, magazines, ezines, and discussion lists.
Deaf Gay Websites
The first stop in the gay community on the internet has traditionally been DeafQueer.Org, the website of the Deaf Queer Resource Center (DQRC). The DQRC is host to a site devoted to deaf people who have passed from AIDS, www.deafaids.info.An e-zine, Flash, is published by the DQRC.
Deaf Gay Organizations
The largest deaf gay organization is the Rainbow Alliance of the Deaf. The RAD has chapters across the United States. For example, theCapitol Metropolitan Rainbow Allianceis the D.C. metro area deaf gay association. It has its own mailing list, The CMRAZoom.Still another is the Gay and Lesbian Association of the Deaf - East, an organization for deaf gays and lesbians on the East coast. There is even one for deaf bears and cubs, gays who prefer hairy gays.
Social Service Organizations
The Deaf Gay and Lesbian Center (DGLC) of San Francisco meets the social service needs of the deaf gay community in the San Francisco Bay area. The DGLC provides counseling, employment assistance, community education, and other services.
