The 2008 Sign Language Calendars Have Arrived!
Yes! They have arrived! We're the first deaf agency to receive them this year and we have plenty plenty of them!
The theme for 2008 is Community Helpers. Signs of community helpers like interpreters, soldiers, doctors, and teachers and their related signs are on the calendars! The calendars are a social worker's goldmine!
Celebrate the International Day of Sign Language with us by getting the 2008 Calendars and fingerspelling placemats from us this coming weekend!

FREE Support Service Providers (SSP) Class
Deaf-blind need Support Service Providers (SSP) to be able to navigate through stores, supermarkets, malls, events as these people will use tactile sign language to tell deaf-blind what's going on around him/her and what items are around as well.
We received a grant that will allow us to have a free SSP class at the Orange County Deaf Advocacy Center. Training SSP to assist our southland deaf-blind community members is one of our priorities. Beth Koenig will be the instructor. This will be held in our classroom. We will have refreshments.
Date : Saturday , October 13, 2007 1pm - 6pm
Maximum number of people : 15
RSVP : Yes at 949-955-0054(V/FAX) 949-955-0050 (TDD)

Debunking One Of Ridorlive's Favorite Rumors
Yesterday at the Los Angeles Deafestival 2007, I was approached by several people from our great blogworld. They asked me about our office. It seems our great rumorblogger Ridorlive website had been feeding them some interesting stuff about our office. So after a day at the office on Monday the 17th, I decided to make a small video of our agency for our great deaf blogworld.
After seeing the video, you be the judge whether your valuable brain cells have been wasted carrying garbage from this great rumorblogger.
