Teach us a sign! If you could teach someone ONE ASL sign that they probably don't know, what would it be? Maybe it's a useful everyday sign, a funny sign, a regional sign, or simply one you really enjoy using. Tell us the sign and why you picked it.

Today is International Day of Sign Languages! Today, we celebrate sign languages and the millions of people who use them to communicate, connect, learn, work, and participate in their communities. For us, it's also a reminder that communication access matters. What does sign language mean to you?

ASL is more than a collection of hand signs. It's a language with its own grammar, structure, expressions, and culture. For many people, ASL is how they connect with family, friends, school, work, and community. What's one thing you wish more people understood about ASL?

Deaf culture is more than simply not hearing.
• It's language.
• It's shared experiences.
• It's history.
• It's humor.
• It's traditions.
• It's connection.
• It's community.

What is one part of Deaf culture that you appreciate or want others to understand better? Let's celebrate the richness and diversity of our community.

• Is it learning ASL?
• Understanding Deaf culture?
• Improving accessibility?
• Breaking down communication barriers?
• Celebrating Deaf identity?
• Or simply taking the time to learn, connect, and understand?

There isn't just one answer. What does Deaf Awareness mean to you?
