Programs

American Sign Lanaguage (ASL) Community Awareness:

Establishing a sense of community and heightened sense of awareness of the benefits of teaching ASL to children of all abilities.  Signing Time! will partner with local communities and organizations to establish programs that will create a family-to-family network offering support and assistance with ASL, through:  sharing of resources, development and broadcast of the Signing Time series on public television, public appearances, product donations, and providing information on published studies.

A recent NIH study shows that children who learn to sign may experience:

  • Reduced frustration and tantrums
  • Increased bonding with parents
  • Enhanced speaking, spelling, and reading skills!
