ASOCIDE Catalunya

Support for Deafblind People in Catalonia

Associació de Sordcecs de Catalunya (ASOCIDECAT) is a nonprofit organization serving deafblind people throughout Catalonia. It is part of the Federation of Associations of Deafblind People of Spain (FASOCIDE).

History

Spain's first association focused on deafblind people was established in Madrid in 1993 as a centralized service. As services and membership grew, a network of regional branches was created, including one in Catalonia in 1998. In 2009, that branch became an independent association within FASOCIDE.
