Presently we have 11 full members. In total we know of 84 hearing impaired persons in Antigua. However, research on this subject is still necessary since we believe that there are many other hearing impaired individuals in our society. We have meetings on third (or fourth) Tuesdays, at the Tim O’Rilley Auditorium at 6:00pm.

There are two classes of membership.

1. Ordinary: Christians who are actively involved in the work of a local assembly of the body of Christ and are prepared to minister faithfully to the Deaf and Hearing Impaired. Members in this category are eligible to vote, are 21 years of age or older, and are required to contribute an annual subscription fee.

a. Directors and Officers – Main administrative body.
b. General - Valid members of local Churches.


2. Provisional: Other members of society who are desirous of contributing their
time and resources. Members in this category are not eligible to vote.

a. Advisory – Church leaders (such as Pastors, department heads, Elders and other individuals with significant leadership experience) appointed by the directors. Advisors are required to provide spiritual support, counsel on various issues and may be requested to attend specific meetings.

b. Associate – Deaf / Hearing Impaired Individuals who regularly attend meetings and activities.

c. Affiliate - Members who attend at least two meetings or activities per quarter, contribute 50% of the annual subscription fee, and may participate in Ministry/presentations from time to time.

d. Honorary – organisations, groups, businesses or individuals whose assistance or contribution merits recognition.

e. Prospective – Individuals desirous of becoming general members.
