> *************************************Hi Eric:  I'm so glad to hear that you were with us for the SSP Workshop.  We certainly enjoyed developing it, and we hope that you will stay with us.


I'm afraid I was not present for the presentation you mention, so I cannot provide you with the answer you want.  But  I will be looking for an archive containing the general session in order to listen to it.  If you don't have your answer by then, I hope to be able to provide it for you.  Based on the information provided in your question, though, I want to make an educated guess that the ATM will have a jack or port for hearing aid wearers to plug in their headphones, or even an actual headphone available on the machine itself.  Such devices these days should be hearing-aid compatible.

I hope that someone else who has actually heard the presentation will step up to answer your question.

Welcome to our Division, Eric, and we welcome your daughters as well.  We're very glad you have decided to visit our list.  We hope you will feel comfortable here and that you be inclined to ask any relevant questions or to provide information that you find interesting or valuable to deaf-blind individuals and their families and friends.
