Deaf people have high rates of behavioral health issues but often don't receive treatment. With this grant, @AileenAldalur & @wyattehall will develop an ASL behavioral health assessment toolkit to make screening more accessible to Deaf patients. Congrats! #URochesterResearch
Deaf education and early intervention are the only fields of science that still view signed languages as “controversial” for healthy human development. Linguistics, brain imaging, psychology, and more eagerly research it to expand our understanding of what it means to be human.

Great talk by @wyattehall regarding language deprivation, mental health, sign language access and outcomes. Cognition before communication! If we emphasise thinking and exposure to language, the communication will come. @Deakin #DeafMentalHealthConference #Auslan
If you were working on a project with @jmhenner or have a work in progress influenced by his thinking, consider submitting to our Special Issue - Critical Studies in Deaf Education and Linguistic Research: A Collection in Honor of Jon Henner. Info below! academic.oup.com/jdsde/pages/sp…
Early signed language exposure does not negatively impact spoken language processing in deaf CI users but may instead potentially offset negative effects of language deprivation without any signed language exposure experience prior to implantation. direct.mit.edu/nol/article/do…

I was one of the lucky 10% to be born to deaf parents, but the other 90% are at the mercy of these supposed experts. Many of these kids are language deprived & go on to have psychosocial issues and a lower level of education attainment #SignLanguageWeek #BSLInOurHands @BDA_Deaf

Height of irony because DHH expertise is routinely ignored/marginalized. So that expertise is only acknowledged as a convenient way for EHDI professionals to not interact with them?

Families felt supported as long as they remained on the “desired” trajectory. They felt they lost support when they expanded options such as adding sign language services. #ehdi2024 #LeveragingParentPerspectivestoInformEHDISystemChange
We are proud to share that our very own Drs. @AileenAldalur and @kimvanorden alongside Dr. Wyatte Hall of @VLAAlab and researchers from @GallaudetU and @UMassChan were recently awarded the Quality Institute Healthcare Innovation Pilot Award from the @UR_Med Quality Institute.
I worry for deaf people who can only access mental health counseling via telehealth. Many states have no qualified therapists fluent in ASL with knowledge of how deafness shapes our mental health. And plenty of therapists who refuse to comply with ADA.

WFD led a project for the legal recognition of sign languages in Asia, supported by @NipponF_pr. We completed training courses in 6 countries, Indonesia🇮🇩, Laos🇱🇦, Malaysia🇲🇾, Singapore🇸🇬, Thailand🇹🇭 and Vietnam🇻🇳. We invited them to review the results and their advocacy work.

Big news for BU Wheelock! We are building a new center for research and innovation in sign language and deaf education. We are hiring an Assistant Director to help with program management and event management. It is in Boston (hybrid possible). bu.silkroad.com/epostings/inde…
Sign language AI is dominated by hearing, non-signing researchers. What kinds of systemic biases does this introduce in the field's collective direction? To find out, read our preprint, with @aashaka_desai @mdemeulder @jahochcam and Annemarie Kocab! arxiv.org/abs/2403.02563

Language deprivation is still not accepted by many/most practitioners in deaf education and teacher education. It was a key point of contention for the expert witness for the school district in the Carter Churchill case.

Normative conceptions of language rights are based on negative rights (governments should not interfere) and tolerance-oriented rights (the right to use one's language in a private sphere). Normative conceptions of linguistic justice are inadequate for sign language rights.

I’m happy to discuss criticism of my work, but there’s a difference between trolling and debating. Dismissing over 500 deaf participants in our research, and my many signing deaf academic collaborators, as ‘fake’ will earn a block from me every time. I don’t apologise for that.

I just remembered last Saturday was my 18th anniversary on T. I’m an adult now! I’ll celebrate by getting a tattoo in honor of @jmhenner. Also, zero regrets. Transition was the best decision for me.
@Joetato21 I’ve seen similar situations in community contexts.
@Joetato21 I think this is related to quality (broadly defined) because I’ve seen some Deaf professionals with their designated interpreters reduce their fingerspelling, but with other interpreters rely on fingerspelling.
@Joetato21 I think that people can get frustrated when interpreters do not use the correct verbiage - based on context, content, etc. — and that this leads folks to rely more on fingerspelling to make sure interpreters get the right message across.
@Joetato21 Or is it that at the intersection of (lack of) quality of interpreters?

Early signed language exposure does not negatively impact spoken language processing in deaf CI users but may instead potentially offset negative effects of language deprivation without any signed language exposure experience prior to implantation. direct.mit.edu/nol/article/do…
Today I successfully defended my PhD! So grateful for everyone who has been with me through this journey.
Tonight I learned that apparently some people in my region are criticizing my program for being “too deaf” and I don’t even know what to say to that. It’s a Deaf Ed program, my friend. Calling it too deaf seems like a compliment.
