Hello, this is Darrell Roby and I am on board with Wisconsin Association of the Deaf, I spoke to them about AGBell has brought the lawsuits against the school programs that use ASL. They need evidence first not hearsay, oh boy, i wonder if you can help me out where to find an article that claimed about AGBell lawsuits on school? let me know. thanks.

some suggestions:

1) get insurance for child care
2) I agree with above posting about using a campground as an alternate to the high cost of room (make another announcement?)
3) get an expert media liaison to work w/ media
4) two books that may be helpful--
a)Don't Think of an Elephant: Know Your Values and Frame the Debate--The Essential Guide for Progressives by George Lakoff
b)Rules for Radicals by Saul Alinsky

good luck

this is a response to a blog few months old..
looks like i stand corrected-

had been getting emails that keep informing me that funding for ASL tutoring does exist..
it is up to parents to request such services at LEA as long as the deaf child is under age 21.

will the ASL tutor be paid the same as a speech therapist?
i cannot answer that but i understand that it is negotiable..

good luck
i send all of you good vibes

It looks like a good time to go up to Milwaukee! Hope to plan on doing that.

I would love to see DBC Chapter in Missouri as well!

I just talked to Ella Mae Lentz and she is encouraging me and others to come up there.

It sounds like a jolly good time to ensure that we have empowered more deaf individuals for the right to use ASL in communities.

Sincerely,

Paul =)

I am the hearing parent of a deaf child. I would love to learn more, but your videos are not captioned and my ASL is still not great. It is very hard for me to find out more about this conference because your videos aren't captioned! HELP!
