The purpose of the Southeastern Regional Interpreter Training Consortium (SERITC) is to: 1) alleviate the shortage of interpreters, including individuals from underrepresented populations; 2) increase the competencies, credentials, and placement of trainees/students and completers/graduates; and 3) coordinate, collaborate, and provide outreach and technical assistance, including statewide capacity building to the eight states in RSA Region IV (Alabama, Georgia, Florida, Kentucky, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Tennessee). The SERITC is funded through the U.S. Department of Education, Rehabilitative Services Administration. SERITC was established in 1980 to address the need for qualified interpreters to serve individuals who are deaf. The focus of SERITC, at the onset, was to promote and offer in-service training for aspiring and/or practicing interpreters in RSA Region IV. Since that time, the activities of the Consortium have been expanded to include services to individuals who are hard of heard and deaf-blind as well as pre-service training, outreach, and technical assistance services at both the regional and statewide levels.

While I have a bias towards cultural Deaf models, I am also trying to include more material about hard of hearing issues as well. The information is collected here as a service to the Deaf, hard of hearing, and hearing communities. I gladly welcome contributions to this online library by e-mail (contributions @ deaflibrary.org). However, I am unfortunately not able to respond to e-mailed questions about Deaf culture or Deaf society. I wish that I could, but I would be swamped with requests and my own students and research have to take precedence. I would kindly suggest asking the research librarian at your local college for assistance. Please note that in general, I will not even bother to respond to questions for term papers and take home exams. Your teacher is testing you, not me.

Extractions: ALDA Announcements HERE ALDA Chapters and Groups What is ALDA? ALDA was formed in Chicago, Illinois in 1987. Most of those that gathered there were total strangers who had never met or talked to another deafened person, yet they found themselves wonderfully comfortable with one another. There was an unspoken feeling of understanding and patience with each other's communication difficulties. The marvelous sense of fellowship lasted and led to more social gatherings and self help support groups, which swiftly evolved into the Association of Late Deafened Adults (ALDA). Today, ALDA's membership is international in scope. ALDA works collaboratively with other organizations around the world serving the needs of late-deafened people and extends a welcome to everyone, late deafened or not, who supports our goals.

History of the TTY From Jamie Berke Sign up for my Newsletter Sometimes, deafness is misdiagnosed as autism and vice versa. Other times, a child will turn out to be both deaf AND autistic. Deaf children with autism are rare, but do exist. There was one in our child's school. An acquaintance that works as a teacher's aide told me that some of the deaf children she works with were adopted internationally as "only deaf" children who were found to be autistic as well as deaf. So there may be more deaf and autistic children out there we just don't hear very much about them.
Deafness In Comics deafness in comics. Deaf persons in comics. Professor Calculus. They are not successful at stealing the treasure. Jamie Berke s page about deafness in the Comics. http://home.c2i.net/vidarland/comics/deaf.htm
Extractions: Deafness in comics The main characters in comics are usually flawless. One exception is professor Calculus. He is hard of hearing. The professor refuses to use hearing aid even though he misunderstands requently. In "Destination Moon" he claims that hearing aid is used only by the deaf, and he is not deaf - he is just a little hard of hearing on one ear. Still, he does use a hearing trumpet! This suggests that the professor has grown more and more hard of hearing and does not know just how much he does not hear. This may lack of understanding may have been caused by the fact that the other characters fail to tell him when his answers are a bit off. Like when Tintin says that he is not feeling too well in "The Seven Chrystal Balls". When professor Calculus thinks Tintin claims that Hippolytos is in the garden, Tintin does not tell him he misunderstood. And the professor appears to be stupid when he walks into the garden. It looks like Calculus eventually understands the problem. When they are going to the moon ("Destination Moon") Haddock makes a comment about Calculus not being deaf any more. The professor says that he has constructed hearing aid because he has to listen to the radio while piloting the rocket to the moon. Gaston Lagaffe wants to do as much of the things he supposed not to do in working hours instead of doing his job. The result is a medium size mountain if incoming mail. That is not so bad, The bills from the plumbers, electricians and various people fixing the buildings after Gastons experiments end in explotions are worse. Gaston does his best to reduce the strain on his fellow workers by exposing them for pratical jokes.
