Deaf Community Awareness Blog Train

Welcome to the Digi Blog Train's Deaf Community Awareness train. This is my first time on the Digi Blog Train, so I'm hoping you like what I've put together for you!

Did you know that 33 babies are born with hearing loss every day in the United States alone. That 50% of all children who are screened for hearing loss do not receive a timely diagnosis, or treatment? And that only 50% of children who would benefit from cochlear technology receive an implant?

It's true, according to information supplied by TheDeafCommunity.org. Virtually everyone knows someone with some form of hearing loss. (My mother is partially deaf.) But many people are not aware or don't take into consideration the special needs of the hearing impaired.

This train was organized to raise awareness of the hearing loss and I hope that my little contribution will help you a bit with your understanding of communication awareness.

I have created 10 (3600 x 3600 pixel, .jpg) papers and 25 .png elements to showcase hearing loss. Included in this kit are 2 bows, 2 flairs, 2 flowers, 2 frames, 2 labels, 2 ribbons, 1 angora cat, 1 ASL Spoken Here sign, 1 ASL t-shirt, 1 awareness ribbon, 1 butterfly, 1 happy snail, 1 iPad, 1 journaling tag, 1 ladybug, 1 paw print, 1 sparkles, 1 staples, and 1 string.

There's even a bit for hearing impaired animals, who make excellent pets, despite being differently enabled.
