Here are a few things in the news today

  • Gallaudet's Clerc Center, in partnership with CSD Fremont and academics nation-wide, publish new standards for teaching ASL to children K-12, to ensure proper language development. Hoping to put ASL and English on equal footing for bi-bi students.
  • ALDI launches a new commercial, entirely in sign language, for the UK’s Deaf Awareness Week. A first for ALDI.
  • A new marketplace research report came out examining TRS (telephone relay service) and the dominant players in that business. With Real-Time Text on the verge of going mainstream, and TRS’ benefits to DeafBlind users, expect to see this market stay strong for the foreseeable future.
