Deaf Connect Brisbane draws on a long history of Deaf-led service delivery in Queensland; our founding organisation, Deaf Services Queensland, was among the earliest in the country before merging to form Deaf Connect in 2020.

Our Deaf trainers, support workers and staff bring that lived experience into every session, consultation and service. For those exploring Auslan classes in Brisbane, accessing interpreting or connecting with community support, our Queensland team works alongside you across a range of settings.

Our Brisbane team provides support services that assist with services delivered in Auslan, empowering individuals independence and participation in everyday life.

Examples of support may include:

• Daily living support: Assistance with routines, transport and organisation
• Appointments and service access: Supporting participants in attending medical, education and community services
• Communication access: Services delivered in Auslan for Auslan users and the Deaf community
• Community participation: Support involvement in social activities and local programs
• Skill development: Build confidence and independence through practical support

We also provide Auslan interpreters in Brisbane, as well as community-based programs, supports and services for deaf children and their families, as well as community events.
