Training Opportunity - Emergency responders and the deaf and hard of hearing

Hello, my name is Sean Furman. I'm one of the Deaf Specialists at the Arizona Commission for the Deaf and the Hard of Hearing (ACDHH). I'd like to take a minute to talk about public safety. ACDHH recognizes that public safety is important for everyone including Deaf and Hard of Hearing. Are you prepared for the unexpected? We need consumers to participate with emergency response professionals on Friday, July 31. This FREE training is comprised of 3 parts. First, emergency professionals will learn how to communicate with the Deaf and Hard of Hearing communities in the event of a disaster. Second, you will have the chance to tell the professionals what is important to you or what issues may arise in times of emergency or disaster. Last, the professionals will share their role and responsibility with you during times of an emergency or disaster. This training will be fully communication accessible to the Deaf and Hard of Hearing. When? Friday, July 31 Where? Disability Empowerment Center: 5025 E Washington Street, Phoenix. Please register soon! The deadline to register is Thursday, July 18. Register online through www.erma.az.gov using number 1002573. I hope to see you there! Thank you. �
