WELCOME TO DEAF CONNECT PERTH
Deaf Connect provides Auslan courses in Perth that support learners at every stage of their journey. As a Deaf-led organisation with a national education focus, Deaf Connect’s programs reflect lived experience, Deaf culture and practical communication. Learners can take part in a sign language course in Perth that build confidence, connection and real-world signing skills in a supportive environment.
Located in West Perth at 44A Kings Park Road, Deaf Connect’s central location is accessible to individuals, families and workplaces seeking to strengthen their signing skills. We also provide services tailored for the Deaf Community such as support work services, aged care supports, interpreting and programs for families.

In 2023 Access Plus WA Deaf, merged with Deaf Connect to strengthen the existing supports for the WA Deaf community.
"As a Deaf-led organisation we recognise the history of the Access Plus, the work of current and previous staff from that organisation, as well as community members and Elders past and present.
Access Plus has been supporting the Deaf community since 1921. Through this merger, this legacy will be transferred to Deaf Connect, preserving the rich history of the Deaf community in Western Australia.
Deaf Connect look forward to welcoming Access Plus staff to the organisation and working with the Western Australian Deaf community to ensure our service delivery, programs and advocacy are tailored to meet their needs.” - Deaf Connect CEO, Brett Casey (2023)

Beyond Auslan classes, Deaf Connect delivers several education programs in Perth both for Deaf learners and for those wanting to increase their Deaf awareness. Short courses on a range of different topics are available to Deaf adults wanting to increase their skills and knowledge. While businesses or families wanting to learn Auslan or increase their Deaf awareness can access Deaf awareness training. This is particularly relevant for organisations who may have a Deaf team member and want to ensure that staff can communicate with them effectively, and also for parents who have had their first deaf child and want to introduce their community to understanding the needs of Deaf people. Learning pathways remain flexible, with options that support different goals, schedules and settings.
