The Missouri Department of Mental Health serves people from every walk of life, for no one is inherently immune from mental illness, developmental disabilities, or addiction to alcohol or other drugs, including persons who are deaf or hard of hearing.
Among the one in 10 Missourians who will need mental health services in their lifetimes are more than 45,000 people who are deaf or hard of hearing. Because deafness or hearing loss pose their own challenges in coping with risk factors and accessing and receiving treatment services, the Department of Mental Health has established a Office of Deaf Services to break down the barriers that inhibit the department in its mission to enable Missourians to live beyond their limitations.
