About this Event

This is a practical awareness session that will bring benefits to Deaf women and girls accessing your organisation right from day one. This course will help you to have a better understanding of Deaf women and girls, their language and communication needs and the additional challenges they face. It will show you can help break down the barriers for them in practical ways which cost nothing, whilst making your service more accessible not only to Deaf women and girls, but anyone who has a communication difficulty or for whom English is a second language. Using video presentation and group interaction to reinforce the factual content, this course is of practical value to all agencies providing specialist services for women and girls and an invaluable part of individual continuous professional development.
