DEAFCYBERCON is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit whose mission is to create an equitable pipeline of career opportunities for deaf and hard-of-hearing women in cybersecurity. Our aim is to increase the net job growth rate for full- and part-time positions for deaf and hard-of-hearing women.

DEAFCYBERCON partners with the private sector, philanthropic, and academic organizations as we seek to gain their commitment to creating an inclusive environment for deaf and hard-of-hearing women through the use of sign language, interpreters, closed captions, or assistive technologies. We facilitate educational activities such as awareness campaigns and industry certification training. We manage a collection of products that enable private sector businesses to attract qualified cybersecurity talent, meet their diversity, equity, and inclusion objectives, and integrate deaf and hard of hearing women into their workforce.
