Isaiah 55 is an institution that is in charge of supporting many of the needy communities in the city of Reynosa. It is a mission created by American missionaries to fulfill a purpose.
Although the institution we interviewed was his school, a school aimed, especially, at providing quality education to the silent deaf community, teaching educational content and training, in addition to teaching language and mother tongue classes.
Mission Isaiah 55 is an institution dedicated to providing education to people from the deaf-mute community, in addition to providing service to the community in areas in need in the city of Reynosa, Tamaulipas.

The reason for its foundation: Help your neighbor, through the creation of positive impacts on people's lives, even for those who are in support of this cause, directly and indirectly. But if it's an institution with the interest of community service, how can it be merged into a business?

His mission is to "deafen an accessible and formal language and education, using both Mexican sign language and written language, based on the word of God, in order to develop the character and identity proper to each student as a deaf person, a Mexican, a citizen of the world." And his aspiration to arrive "To be an institution that allows the development of autonomy in people with deafness, allowing equality for deaf people in [the] society around the world, for the sign language in Mexico to be a primary communication in order to be able to have access to all the opportunities and options that young people without disabilities have."

It allows more than 70 people per course to graduate and can fulfill the goal of reintegrating into their daily lives.
The institution provides deaf-mute people with the necessary tools to develop the skills needed to be productive people. All this comes about with the teaching of courses where you learn attitudes and actions like everyone else, to provide equal opportunities for everyone.
