Cued Speech Services at Colleges

While all colleges and universities are required to provide reasonable accommodations under the guidelines of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), the relatively low prevalence of cuers means that many higher education institutions either are not aware of Cued Speech or are not located in an area where Cued Speech is used. Therefore, some colleges and universities may be unable to provide cued language transliterator (CLT) services for incoming freshmen or transfer students.

The following U.S./American colleges and universities are known to currently provide CLTs or have done so in the past.

If you are deaf or hard of hearing and used transliterators in college or graduate school and the institution you attended is not listed here, please add it!

The inclusion on this list does not guarantee that a college or university can provide CLTs, as transliterators may no longer live in the area or may have changed careers.
