Janice or anyone,
How would one find out if and where PT workshops were being held in my state? 
Thank you,

So I don't have to stop signing to receive that information.  Also, if I'm chatting with a DBP, they can express understanding, agreement, laughter, all kinds of emotions, and I can do likewise without interupting that tactual ASL conversation.

>>>>>> Hay I was looking  around on blind how's site!  It was pretty interesting!  I was wondering if some blind folks might show how they do ASL and also give a deaf-blind perspective on how to do different things! I could not find any videos on this or articles ; unless I missed something! I put deaf blind in the search, and the results seem to have                           nothing to do with what I put in the search!  It got me thinking about this when I read an article  online, pro-tactile The DeafBlind                           Way! It was a really good article.  It was something I never thought about before I read the article and it made sense to me the points in the article! I thought it should be on blindhow's site too!  You  can sign up for an account and post content to the site   in the form of videos and articles!  I wonder if you can send an article about the "i can connect," program.    73 Heather
