Deaf and Hard of Hearing Liaison Unit
The Deaf and Hard of Hearing Liaison Unit was officially established in April 2002 by the Metropolitan Police Department. Our goal is to provide the best service possible to meet the unique needs of individuals of the deaf and hard of hearing community. Officer Myra Jordan has been selected as a coordinator of DHHU. Three interns from Gallaudet University have been working with Officer Myra Jordan. Officer Myra Jordan is fluent in American Sign Language. She has the ability of mediating between deaf community and the MPD.
The DHHU encourages you to contact the members of the unit with any questions or concerns. The members' cell phones now have text messaging capabilities. The MPDC also has 30 sign language interpreters contracted and available 24-hours, 7 days a week.
