I am taking beginning classes offered by our local Deaf Advocacy agency, for both HOH and Deaf. They are free and also right in town, so no commute or dealing with traffic, plus they are offered in the evenings so my husband, who works, can still attend with me. These classes are for the Late Deafened and Hard of Hearing, mostly, but anyone can come who has hearing loss, plus a family member. I like that it's not for the general public, because the environment is much more supportive.
