  1. Hello!
    My name is Rhiannon and I’m based in Eugene, Oregon. I recently obtained my massage license and have a new business “Talking Hands Massage Therapy” offering massage with ASL accessibility.

    I was wondering if you would consider adding me to the list of Deaf owned businesses you have?

  4. I don’t see my own company of 28 years in YOUR field. I am the owner of Rosslyn Auto Body Co. in Alexandria, Virginia. My company is not small and lowly business like those one of deaf owned auto body shop in Austin, Texas. Go check the website RosslynAutoBody.com and check out in Facebook.

  7. I would love if you could add Copper Town Sweets to the growing list of Deaf-Owned Businesses!

    It’s a cottage bakery based in San Manuel, outside of Tucson, AZ- serving local and shipping all over the United States as well! :)

  8. Lisa has been deaf since a childhood bout of German measles; she created and has owned Denham’s Natural Skin Care Company and has been running it for over 20 years, supplying mom-and-pop outfits to hospitals and pharmaceutical companies. Her products, under various brands, are being sold on every platform and in every state within the U.S.

    Disability, no matter what, is just another hurdle in life to overcome. Form a life to your reality and never allow others to dictate what you can and cannot do. A person can succeed with hard work. You can do it.

  9. I would like to support my local deft businesses. You do not show where these businesses are located. Could you ad at least the state; “Sam’s Creations – OR”
