Your Hearing Dog is a Colorado-based nonprofit organization that is dedicated to providing support and assistance to the deaf and hard-of-hearing community.

Our five (5) year plan includes the following :

• Identifying Hearing Dogs – YHD collaborates with a local shelter in Colorado to screen dogs for suitability to be trained as service dogs for the deaf and hard of hearing community.
• Matching Program – YHD matches suitable dogs with eligible owners through an application process and needs assessment.
• Training – The standard training for YHD service dogs involves two parts – the first part is to teach the service dogs a set of tasks to assist people who are deaf and hard-of-hearing while the second part involves a personalized bootcamp between the dog and the matched owner.
• Help desk – YHD provides ongoing support through a phoneline and email, with potential for a virtual assistant on their website.
• Meetups – YHD creates both in-person and online communities for support and annual events for successful matches to gather and provide feedback for improvement.
• Museum – As part of our five-year plan, we intend to establish a museum showcasing the historical journey of prominent individuals who are deaf and hard-of-hearing.

Your Hearing Dog Inc’s mission is to supply specially trained service dogs to the deaf and hard-of-hearing community, as well as veterans with the same challenges. YHD is looking for a Donor Engagement Manager. If you enjoy engaging with people and creating relationships, then this might be an ideal position for you.
