WATCH [ASL] - Information updates on the Deaf protest at the White House in Washington, District of Columbia.

WASHINGTON -- Deaf protest rally will be held on September 5th and 6th 2015 at the white house in Washington DC. The protest is all about unemployment, discrimination, civil rights and language barriers in the United States. Here's the information of the location, time, meet, trip, and employment statistics.

The White House announces a new location for the protest area at the Ellipse Park, instead the Lafayette Square due to the renovation. Up to 20,000 Deaf people gathering at the park at 10 am - 4 pm - as seen on the map: Here.

This is an explanation on the base of erroneous information on the percentage of Deaf unemployment. Reading and understanding statistics are complicated. It's imperative to be critic of any research or papers with numbers: 2014 Disability Statistics Annual Report.

Gallaudet Report - There are some statistics investigating the employment rate of working-age individuals with hearing loss in the United States. The statistics for 2013 are made available in the Disability Statistics Compendium, specifically Table 2.3. The data within Table 2.3 is based on data from the 2012 American Community Survey from the Census Bureau.

Dropout Rate Among Mainstream Deaf Students

A documentary film about dropout rate among mainstream Deaf and Hard of Hearing students in the United States.

WASHINGTON, DC -- Students with hearing loss attending general education classrooms have been reported to experience difficulties in social skills and relationships. This 5-year longitudinal study examined the social skills and problem behaviors of students who were Deaf or Hard of Hearing, and who attended general education classrooms. Data were obtained from classroom teachers and students themselves.

The mean Social Skills and Problem Behavior scores (Social Skills Rating Scales; Gresham & Elliott, 1990) were within the average range and normally distributed each year. The average change over 5 years in social skills and problem behavior was not significant.

The most consistent predictors of social outcomes were the students" classroom communication participation and participation in extracurricular activities. Implications for placement, intervention, and further research are discussed.
