Family Sign Language Class 1 Fall 2019 Kentwood
September 10, 2019 @ 4:00 pm - 6:00 pm
LOCATED AT OUR OFFICE
The Family Sign Language class at our offices is for beginners. It is designed for anyone who wants to begin learning sign language with their family to use in everyday life and to communicate with people who use ASL as their primary language. This class begins the journey to proficiency in ASL, but is not intented to be a substitute for professional intensive training to become a sign language interpreter. Because it is a Family Class you will be learning the very BASICS of ASL. Should you want to learn more at an excellerated rate we recommend starting with ASL 1.
The cost for the entire(immediate) family is $100. This includes all materials used in the class. No refunds will be given after the first day of class. THE EVENTBRITE FEES ARE NON-REFUNDABLE. Scholarships are available. Please call Deb Atwood at 616-732-7358 x206 for more information about scholarships.

American Sign Language Interpreters are professionals who have completed intensive training in their field and are licensed to work according to Michigan Law (PA 204). The Federal Americans with Disabilities Act guarantees a deaf or hard of hearing person the right to effective communication in the workplace and in places of public accommodation; this requirement is not met by the use of an unlicensed signer.
