American Sign Language Effects On The Brain

Deaf children need adequate communication to develop a healthy brain, experts say.

DHN's coverage story of the education and communication skills for Deaf children in the United States of America. Experts tell us how the brain works when it doesn't develop properly and when it does.

Their solution? Giving Deaf children access to both American Sign Language and English leads to healthy development and should be part of every child's learning process from day one. Next week we meet two women who did just that.

Deaf Domestic Violence #WhoWillAnswer

1500 Deaf domestic violence calls answered... How many missed?

Take a look at who is behind #WhoWillAnswer and the amazing work it is doing for Deaf domestic violence victims across the country in the United States of America.

To activate this feature, press the "CC" button.

Help in the national campaign to fund 24/7 access to domestic violence services in American Sign Language.

Communication Service for the Deaf (CSD) and Abused Deaf Women’s Advocacy Services (ADWAS) are giving you the chance... now answer the call and donate today - www.WhoWillAnswer.org.

#WhoWillAnswer The Calls?

To activate this feature, press the "CC" button.

The National Domestic Violence Hotline partners with Abused Deaf Women’s Advocacy Services to provide a Hotline staffed by Deaf Advocates who communicate in American Sign Language and answer calls from 9am-5pm PST, Monday through Friday.

But what about calls that occur after 5pm and on weekends when the Deaf advocates are not available to receive calls due to lack of funding?

Instead, calls are routed to the National Domestic Violence Hotline, where hearing advocates answer using interpreters after hours. We need fully trained Deaf advocates that can answer using American Sign Language any time they are needed. Who do we want to answer the call? Help us expand our program so Deaf Advocates are able to answer the call, 24/7.

Deaf and Hearing News - Deaf Family

Short film: How does Deaf and Hearing Network impact a Deaf family?.

DHN is a place where everyone can get the news in the language that suits them best, whether they are Deaf or Hearing. This is the first of five installments to show you that DHN is the #NewsForEveryone. How does DHN benefit you? Tell us in the comments below or on social media.

DHN is a news agency out of Phoenix, Arizona. We incorporate American Sign Language, spoken English and captions into each broadcast. There are 48 million Deaf or Hard of Hearing people in America and the majority of them are born into hearing families. Very few of those families will learn sign language - American Sign Language, ASL. This gives the entire family access to news.

Videographer: David Banen
Editor: Peyton Gallovich
Music: Jeff Southwick
Actors: Abrams-Gay Family

This is the first news show to involve all three forms of communication and give information relevant to everyone whether they are involved in the Deaf community or not. What most people fail to realize is that English and ASL are two completely different languages with their own grammatical structures. Plus, English is a second language for most deaf people and the lag and inaccuracy in live captioning can make daily news a daunting task.

DHN hopes to grow into a national, daily broadcast with news segments and other network programs. We currently air on local channels and online.

Deaf Mom Dances With Hearing Son Goes Viral

Interview with Deaf mom and hearing son connect through their language of dance.

Mark Villaver has danced behind some impressive celebrities like Usher Terry Raymond. But he's never looked better on the dance floor than in this video, where he and his mom throw down some super smooth moves to Usher. Mark's mom is Deaf, but judging by her flow, she has no problem finding her groove.

In the introduction to the video, uploaded to YouTube in mid-October, Mark asks his mom in sign language if she'd like to dance. She signs back, visibly excited, "Yeah!" prompting a dance routine which will absolutely knock your socks off.

Mark Villaver doesn't sign but he and his Deaf mom, Emilia, can always connect through dance. Deaf and Hearing Network sat down with Mark in California and his mom in Hawaii to discuss their love of dance and why they went viral.
