Strange bedfellows?

You have AGBell, NAD and other organizations who are part of the Hearing Alliance (DHHA) group, a Coalition of Consumer and Professional Organizations, who support the ratification of Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD) which was made on July 17, 2012. Also, if you hadn't noticed when you clicked on that link it goes through the Listening and Spoken Language Knowledge Center website. That internet address will soon be AGBell's new website for the AG Bell Association. The old AGBell website address will soon redirect to the new Knowledge Center.

Anyways, AGBell explains in depth about the CRPD along with AGBell's position paper regarding the CRPD with some suggestions on changing/adding a few things to CRPD and compare that to
NAD's position paper which was updated in May of 2012.

Interesting to see the differences between the two organizations regarding their support for CRPD.

You can see the continuing CRPD changes on the amendments in the US Senate Committee on Foreign Relations webpage.
