Hi, my name is Zachary DeLoya. I am the Executive Director of the Washington Advocates of Deaf & Hard of Hearing (WADHH) in Vancouver, Washington. We provide services in the Vancouver, Yakima, Tri-Cities, and Spokane communities.
ODHH leadership, led by Earnest Covington, III., Hope Crumley, Case Management Field Supervisor, and Jonah Thompson, Case Management Team Lead, will support Vancouver Case Management services.
This change is a complex and challenging decision. WADHH is committed to excellent service and support for our communities, and we are excited to collaborate with ODHH. This change will benefit and support our Deaf, DeafBlind, and Hard of Hearing community in Vancouver, Washington.
WADHH and ODHH are committed to a smooth working partnership as we support case management services in Vancouver. This change will begin October 1, 2023, and continue for several weeks. Our services in Vancouver, Yakima, Spokane, and Tri-Cities remain the same. If you have any questions about the transition process, don't hesitate to get in touch with Hope Crumley at [email protected]
