Deaf Awareness Month Highlight #17

ASLU is the highlight today as C.A.N. celebrates day 17 of Deaf Awareness Month!

ASLU is an online American Sign Language curriculum resource center.  ASLU provides many free self-study materials, lessons, and information, as well as fee-based instructor-guided courses.

ASLU has been offering online sign language instruction since 1997.  The program began as an effort to support parents of Deaf children living in rural or “outlying” areas without access to sign language classes.

ASLU was founded by Dr. William G. Vicars, Ed.D. (Also widely known as “Dr. Bill”), who is currently the program director, lead instructor, and webmaster. He holds an accredited doctorate in Deaf Studies / Deaf Education from Lamar University in Texas and is currently a full-time Associate Professor of American Sign Language and Deaf Studies at California State University – Sacramento.
