Danny comes from a Deaf family of four generations from New Mexico and currently works as a Deaf Role Model Coordinator with the Outreach Services for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing. His role involves early interventions for families with the need for support during their child’s critical time for language development; a Deaf Role Model allows family to get personalized, research-based instruction on fostering their child’s American Sign Language and English. This is a wonderful opportunity for families to connect with a Deaf adult and address concerns they have about their Deaf child. As an American Indian of Navajo/Apache/Chicano background he brings a wealth of stories, culture and has traveled enormously in giving presentation/workshops related to early intervention and Diversity issues. He is married to a Deaf Slovakian, has a son who attends IUPUI and a Deaf daughter who masters five languages at home. |
