In this essential 1-hour virtual workshop hosted by the Boston Public Library, you will learn key American Sign Language (ASL) signs to help you communicate clearly and effectively during emergency situations. This session is designed for anyone who works with the public, serves in a community role, or simply wants to be a more prepared and responsible neighbor.

What you will learn:

• Vital Safety Signs: Master practical signs such as Emergency, Come With, Stay Calm, Fire, Danger, Ambulance, Get Under, Go Outside, and more.
• Effective Communication: Improve your ability to relay important information quickly and confidently during high-stress moments.
• Community Preparedness: Learn how to foster a safer, more inclusive environment by breaking down communication barriers.

No prior experience with ASL is required. Join us to build skills that could make a meaningful difference in your community.
