Pink Wings of Hope: Hope, Health, and Cancer Resources
All of our happenings provide an opportunity for our community to come together and share with each other resources that we've found helpful. When a community gathers, an amazing thing happens: its members build each other up and help the whole network to get stronger. Join us, be strengthened, and strengthen others!

About Pink Wings of Hope:
Pink Wings of Hope is a program of DEAF, Inc. that provides cancer support, education, and resources specifically for Deaf, Hard of Hearing, and DeafBlind individuals, as well as their families and caregivers. The program was founded by Deaf women who experienced firsthand the barriers to communication and support during cancer treatment.
They offer peer support groups (in ASL), educational workshops, advocacy, and direct support services — including care packages for individuals undergoing cancer treatment.
The goal is to help people better understand their diagnosis, navigate treatment, and feel supported throughout their cancer journey.
