Sign language night

Family Therapy Solutions hosted an evening of information and beginning signs last night for families, and there was a good turnout!  There were a few families from our group represented, and it was great to get to visit with others and make new acquaintances.

Here’s a list of online resources for signing that was handed out last night.

If you have more questions about signing with your child, please don’t hesitate to leave a comment or email DownSyndromeStC@gmail.com and we can share experiences with our local families and connect you to resources if you’d like.

Thanks to the gang at Family Therapy Solutions for hosting this great event!!
