4 reasons to learn ASL for the Outdoors- Reason 4: Connect with the Deaf Community!

Last summer we partnered with Environment for the Americas Bird Ability interns and our local Feminist Birding DMV chapter to host birding events with our local community. This Deaf led birding event welcomed birders from the Deaf Community and birders who didn't know how to sign. ASL interpreters were provided for those who didn't sign but many of the birders from the Feminist Birding DMV chapter knew some signs or had taken our ASL for the Outdoor classes! This created deeper the connections and spread the love of birding and outdoors to more individuals!

Learn ASL before summer starts! Our next ASL Courses start May 18th, learn more and to register visit here: corpsthat.org/asl-classes-for-outdoor-professionals

4 Reasons to learn ASL for the Outdoors: Reason 2: Creates a more inclusive outdoor space!

With our conservation corps crew and internship placement programs, our partners have taken our ASL for the Outdoor courses to better connect and support our members but they also are now able to create a more inclusive outdoor space. For Deaf visitors to parks or forests when they meet a ranger who knows ASL their experience is often more positive and they are more likely to come back, become stewards of the lands and support our public lands.
