Coronavirus Resources

Deaf Victoria has developed these graphics to assist you in advocating for your communication needs when masks need to be worn. Please contact us if you would like other phrases.

Remember that for COVID-19 related appointments, you can contact Expression Australia’s Auslan Connections to use their VRI (Video Remote Interpreting) service. They can work with the hospital or service to arrange this but if there is no service (or NDIS package) that can be charged, then the interpreter appointment can be FREE.

You can also contact our advocacy officer, Catherine Dunn on advocacy@deafvictoria.org.au for support and advice.

For media enquiries including interviews or comment on issues related to deaf and hard of hearing people, please contact the Deaf Victoria General Manager, Maxine Buxton – manager@deafvictoria.org.au or 0419 586 979 (SMS & voice).
