Stefania Miller, a high school student intern, shares about the National Deaf Youth Day happening on March 6th.

VIDEO DESC & TRANSCRIPT: Stefania is standing inside the NAD Headquarters lobby. The NAD logo appears on bottom right corner as a watermark.

STEFANIA: Hello! The NAD is hosting a national event on March 6th, National Deaf Youth Day! There are two reasons behind the National Deaf Youth Day. First, this is to celebrate the unique identity of deaf and hard of hearing people and their accomplishments. Secondly, it is to promote the idea that deaf and hard of hearing youth can do anything. The National Deaf Youth Day will happen collaboratively all over the United States. Schools for the deaf, mainstream schools, state associations, and organizations will be hosting their own events. In light of deaf and hard of hearing youth, the Conference of Educational Administrators of Schools and Programs for the Deaf (CEASD) will be hosting the Capitol Hill Advocacy Day on March 1st. The NAD will join and support their event. During the Capitol Hill Advocacy Day, the NAD will gather footage and photos. On March 6th, the NAD will share a video about the Capitol Hill Advocacy Day. Join and support the National Deaf Youth Day. The NAD is looking forward to your involvement! Thank you.

Video fades to a soft white background with several different font types showing "NAD" very quickly. Copyright video ends with the National Association of the Deaf (NAD) logo centered.
