The ADA requires that state and local governments, businesses and nonprofit organizations, communicate effectively with those who are disabled. About twenty percent of us live with some level of hearing loss. So, necessity has forced the creation of better ways to communicate with those who are deaf. These have resulted in multiple auxiliary aids and services.
From discreet hearing loops to advanced wireless connectivity systems, ALDs offers a variety of options to improve communication and ensure accessibility. ALS systems do the same. Interpreters, signage and technological advances in machinery, have all emerged as solutions. In this 1 hour course these solutions will be discussed.
When organizations invest in any of these solutions, they demonstrate their commitment to creating a welcoming and inclusive environment for all of their customers, even those who have not yet come through their doors.
