Dirigo Experience brings Deaf youth together
In August, Deaf and hard of hearing youth from across Maine will come together for a week at Pine Tree Camp. Most Deaf youth have never had the chance to meet another Deaf person their own age. The Dirigo Experience breaks that cycle by providing students the chance to make new friends and develop a greater sense of self-esteem through trying new things with peers. Full scholarships are available.
