The Deaf Action Center in Dallas offers ASL classes to the public and sponsors parents learning to better communicate with their children. Finding funding, though, can be hard.
"Every day there's different people who walk through that door," signs Roy Jones, who greets people at the Deaf Action Center's front desk in sign language. "And, I'm always like, come on over. I got pen and paper ready. Let me help you. Sometimes I can read a little bit of your lips, but for the most part, we write back and forth."
The deaf and hearing live side by side here, and there's no need to fight the landlord for special accommodations. Apartments are already equipped. The Deaf, Hughes says, often struggle with underemployment or unemployment because of stigma."Many people think deaf people can't do certain things," she signs.
