About CDHY
In 2009, The Washington State Center for Childhood Deafness and Hearing Loss (CDHL) was established to provide statewide leadership for the coordination and delivery of educational services to children who are deaf or hard of hearing. On May 7, 2019 Governor Inslee officially signed House Bill 1604 which changes our agency name to, The Washington Center for Deaf and Hard of Hearing Youth (CDHY). Learn More
