Part Time Job Opportunity in Sussex/Kent County
Email Message from Pamela A. D’Occhio:
Good afternoon
We are excited to share that we have secured a contract with DDDS (Delaware Division of Developmental Disabilities Services) to provide support through the Enhanced Communication Initiative. The goal of the initiative is to reduce language deprivation and increase quality of care and life experiences in group homes where individuals who are Deaf/Hard of Hearing/Deafblind reside.
We are looking to recruit an individual in the Sussex County area who is interested in supporting this initiative. Candidates who are interested would be required to conduct site visits to either homes or day program locations. This is a contracted position (1099). The introductory hours have some flexibility and range between two and four hours with the possibility of increasing. This contracted position includes mileage reimbursement.
Please direct anyone interested in this very part time position to contact us via email. We thank you for your interest and support.
Very Truly Yours,
Pamela A. D’Occhio
Director
Enhanced Communication Initiative

DAD Note: This originally came from DDSC. Pamela noted roughly 20 hours of work per week was possible depending on the work load.
DDSC Pickleball at the Beach scheduled for September
Pickleball is a sport that has been growing in popularity in recent years. It has even become more mainstream in these parts of the Delmarva Peninsula, for young and old alike.
With that rise in interest, the Delaware Deaf Senior Citizens (DDSC) organization will be hosting a Pickleball at the Beach Tournament in Ocean Pines, Md., on Sept. 14-15, at the Ocean Pines Racquet Center. Players and sponsors are now being sought for the event, which will benefit the DDSC.
The DDSC was established in 2015 to help support the growing deaf population in the southern area of Delaware. The organization is a 501(c)(3) non-profit, so all financial contributions are tax-deductible. The group advocates for its members with regards to fitness, aging, healthcare, and communication accessibility.
