BRIDGES new Deaf Peer Advocate, Esther, explains her services.

Hi, my name is Esther Choi. I am BRIDGES Deaf Peer Advocate for Deaf and Hard of Hearing communities in Rockland County. I am a Deaf Plus (Deaf with other disabilities) person who has experienced challenges with disability services and accessibility issues. I’m here to assist you with identifying resources, organizations that can assist, and providing advocacy support to help you achieve full empowerment and success.  Does your landlord refuse to acknowledge your rights at your house? Do you need a referral to appropriate counseling? Do you want to learn how to live better independently?  My goal is to get your needs and voices heard and your rights respected.  If you need assistance or a consultation, please email me at echoi@bridgesrc.org.
