Connecting with the local Deaf community
Greetings everyone,
I, like a few people here it seems, have been recently accepted into an ITP. There seems to be a big focus on being part / getting in touch with the local Deaf community. Back when I lived in Michigan, it was almost effortless to run into deaf/hoh people. In the two years I've lived in Iowa however, I've seen people signing MAYBE a total of two times. Despite my googling, I can't seem to find much. I'm wondering are there any good websites out there for finding people/groups locally? |

I know two deaf people in Iowa, and I'm way out here in DC, never even been to Iowa! There must be people in DM.

The link I put above is the Deaf Action Center in Des Moines. They do ASL classes and have practices for hearing ASL students to meet. I guess I should have said something instead of expecting her to click on the link?
