We’ve been asking our members, “what ASL resources or programs would make the biggest difference for your family?” You answered, “we want to meet Deaf adults, ask them questions, and practice ASL with them.” We couldn’t agree more! Yesterday, we answered your request and launched a new program offering members a total of 2500 interactive online sessions with Deaf role models. That’s five sessions per household, 30-minutes per session, available on a first-come first-serve basis, for 500 ASDC members!
