New Class - Signing
for Everyday Living
This class targets adults 55 and older who are
experiencing a late-in-life hearing loss and for their family, friends or
caregivers. There is a total of 5 classes that will cover such
topics as food, community, medical, dental household and personal
interests. Classes will be small and allow individuals to practice
their signing skills for everyday use without having to learn the entire
language. This is a great way to learn to communicate when faced with a hearing loss. To learn more contact Jennifer Hess
at (727) 853-1010. |
