  • Sign Language is a Human Right

    With natural sign language exposure and acquisition, deaf children build the cognitive foundations for language learning that leads into literacy skills.

    With little exposure or no experience with Sign Language, the consequences are harsh, with a lifelong impact in academia and mental health struggles.

    Only 3% deaf children worldwide receive education in sign language. We aim for a world where all deaf children get access to sign language from birth, with full language support for their families.

    This is where we come in. We are passionate about creating sign language resources for everyone, everywhere.
