Shortly after the 2020 presidential election, five women joined forces with a mission: assigning Vice President-elect Kamala Harris a name sign, the equivalent of a person's name in American Sign Language.

The women, Ebony Gooden, Kavita Pipalia, Smita Kothari, Candace Jones and Arlene Ngalle-Paryani - as Black and Indian members of the "capital D Deaf community" (a term used by some deaf people to indicate that they embrace deafness as a cultural identity and communicate primarily through ASL) - felt it was important that the selection of Ms. Harris's name sign be the result of an inclusive and democratic process. Given that Vice President Harris was the first female vice president, as well as the first Black and Indian candidate to fill the role, they agreed that her heritage should inform that process, the women recalled in an interview using interpreters.

Turning to social media, they called on other Black and Indian deaf women to join their effort. They set up a system for people to submit suggestions for a name sign, advertised their initiative and its guidelines, led virtual panels and collected video submissions. Eventually, they put the entries to a vote.

Ms. Ngalle-Paryani's own submission won: a hand gesture that involves rotating your wrist externally as your thumb, index and middle finger unfurl open. The draws inspiration, among other things, from the sign for "lotus flower" - the direct translation of the word "Kamala" in Sanskrit - and incorporates the number 3 to underscore Ms. Harris's trifecta of firsts.

"It's truly a badge of honor," Ms. Ngalle-Paryani said, signing, of the selection of her submission. "I really do feel that it fits Madam Vice President."

Name signs, also known as sign names, are an important component of "capital D Deaf" culture. In 1992, the linguist Samuel J. Supalla noted in "The Book of Name Signs" that they serve two functions: They provide deaf people with a way to identify themselves and others in conversation, while also representing "a Deaf person's membership in the Deaf community."

Benjamin J. Bahan, a professor in the Deaf Studies department at Gallaudet University in Washington, D.C., the nation's only liberal arts university devoted to deaf people, said that "name signs usually come from parents who are deaf." If a child does not receive one growing up, perhaps because he or she was raised by hearing parents, he added, the name may be assigned at a later stage.

As people go through life, they may receive new name signs that replace earlier ones. If they have a strong connection to other countries, they may also receive name signs in other sign languages, such as Japanese Sign Language or Russian Sign Language. (Vice President Harris was recently assigned a name sign in British Sign Language.)

[Video description: Via Zoom, Arlene Ngalle-Paryani, wearing a purple shirt with a lotus graphic, begins to sign] I'm part of the group of five women who voted and selected the sign name for Vice President Kamala Harris. [Five women, including Arlene, appear in a grid and sign the newly selected name sign for Vice President Kamala Harris. Then, Candace Jones, wearing a purple shirt, begins to sign] I just have to tell you, there are special rules. If a hearing person wants to have a name sign, they cannot make it up themselves because they're not deaf, and they're not culturally deaf. So they have to allow a deaf person to identify their characteristics, maybe their facial features, their personality, and the deaf person will assign them a sign name. [Smita Kothari, wearing yellow, begins to sign] There often are sign names given to leaders, and it's mostly the white community who gets involved. [Kavita Pipalia, wearing pink and orange, begins to sign] We needed to be involved as women representatives, and demonstrate that women can become leaders. [Ebony Gooden, wearing a white shirt, begins to sign] Coming together as a group and creating a safe space to combine our voices, our culture, our language, our different beliefs, and allow our differences to vibe with each other. We had to grab this opportunity. [Arlene begins to sign] I'm the one that created the sign name. Which was an honor. I did research into what Kamala's name meant, which is lotus flower. And when I read about the lotus flower, the characteristics of it, I found that the lotus flower has very large blossoms with very deep, muddy roots. And out of that deep muddiness, it still grows a beautiful and strong flower. Now, the reason why the hand shape represents the number 3 is because she's the first woman vice president, and she's also the first Black and Indian vice president. Also, the lotus has its blossoms that we sign with the "five" hand shape, but for Kamala, we use "three." I found it to be very important for me to become involved with the creation of Vice President Kamala Harris's sign name because I'm Black and I'm biracial. I'm not Indian, but I am Hispanic. And my child is half Black mixed with Hispanic and Indian. So I feel a strong connection with Kamala Harris. It was worth it for me to contribute. [Video ends.]

I'm part of the group of five women

who voted and selected the sign name for Vice President Kamala Harris.

I just have to tell you, there are special rules.

If a hearing person wants to have a name sign,

they cannot make it up themselves because they're not deaf,

and they're not culturally deaf.

So they have to allow a deaf person

to identify their characteristics.

Maybe their facial features, their personality,

and the deaf person will assign them a sign name.

There often are sign names given to leaders,

and it's mostly the white community who gets involved.

We needed to be involved as women representatives,

to demonstrate that women can become leaders.

Coming together as a group and creating a safe space to combine our voices,

our culture, our language, our different beliefs,

allowing our differences to vibe with each other.

We had to grab this opportunity.

I'm the one who created the sign name,

which was an honor.

I did research into what Kamala's name meant, which is lotus flower.

And when I read about the lotus flower, the characteristics of it,

I found that the lotus flower has very large blossoms with very deep, muddy roots.

And out of that deep muddiness, it still grows a beautiful and strong flower.

Now, the reason why the hand shape represents the number 3

is because she's the first woman vice president,

and she's also the first Black and Indian vice president.

Also, the lotus has its blossoms that we sign with the "five" hand shape,

but for Kamala, we use "three."

I found it to be very important for me to become involved with the creation

of Vice President Kamala Harris's sign name because

I'm Black and I'm biracial.

I'm not Indian, but I am Hispanic,

and my child is half Black mixed with Hispanic and Indian.

So I feel a strong connection with Kamala Harris.

It was worth it for me to contribute.

In ASL, people's name signs coexist with their English names, which are used for official purposes and can be communicated by fingerspelling - spelling out the name letter by letter, using hand shapes for the alphabet.

Dr. Supalla writes that name signs can be classified as being arbitrary, descriptive or nontraditional.

Arbitrary names use alphabetic hand shapes, corresponding to the initial of one's first, middle or last name. Several combinations are possible based on the location of the hands in relation to the body, as well as whether there is any movement involved. Dr. Supalla shares in his book that his name sign belongs to this category; it consists of the hand shape associated with the letter "S," moving from one side of the chin to the other.

Descriptive names are normally based on personal characteristics - like personality or appearance - and are conveyed through hand shapes that are known as classifiers, evocative of the attributes.

Nontraditional name signs combine elements from arbitrary and descriptive naming conventions.

Dr. Supalla explains in his book that while originally, name signs were reserved for deaf people, the growing number of hearing people who use ASL and regularly interact with deaf people has meant that many non-deaf individuals today have name signs. Even so, hearing people may never assign a name sign. As Ms. Ngalle-Paryani noted, only a deaf person may do so.

Name signs may also be given to important figures who have no obvious association with deaf culture, said Carol Padden, a professor of communication at University of California, San Diego. George Washington and Abraham Lincoln, for example, have name signs. So do William and Vincent

Dr. Padden said that recently, deaf people have become more engaged in the process of selecting name signs for hearing politicians and well-known individuals. It's a way for people to acknowledge those individuals "and show alliance with them," she said.

In some cases, however, name signs can also be used to make fun of or signal a lack of respect for someone, Dr. Padden added. A name sign for the former President Richard M. for example, is a combination of the letter "N" and the sign for "lie." One name sign used for former President Donald J. Trump is a mocking reference to his hair; his supporters normally fingerspell his name instead.

Ms. Gooden, one of the five women who came together for Ms. Harris's name, said that as the conversation around a possible name sign for the vice president started taking shape on social media, non-Black and non-Indian deaf individuals - mostly men - were leading the dialogue.

For the women involved, it was key that Black and Indian deaf women were part of the process, given Ms. Harris's background.

"Name signs given to political leaders are usually created by white men, but for this one we wanted to not only represent women, but diversity - Black women, Indian women," Ms. Kothari said. For her, social media was a powerful way of making sure the perspectives of minorities were included. (The project was even more significant because Vice President Harris has in the past spoken publicly in support of deaf rights, Ms. Pipalia said.)

[Video description: Isabella begins to sign:] Yes, I've given many deaf students their name signs. Name signs often used initials from English, but now there's more of a desire to have something that is more personal, or something that lights them up. It's important to give a sign name that really considers and values who a person is. It shouldn't be labels that are thoughtlessly mass produced in a factory. This one child, a student of mine, was very mischievous, with a very engaging personality, so I gave them a sign name that looks like "cute." [signs name sign] Another sign name I gave was like this, "zoom," [signs name sign] because this child would like to just kind of explore. [Monique begins to sign:] People tend to have two or three name signs throughout their lifetime, which is similar to hearing people. You know, they grow up and might have a nickname. [Marsellette begins to sign:] The last person I gave a name sign to, it was because someone else gave her a Signed Exact English sign name that just didn't match. And so I created a sign with "dance," because she loved to dance. [signs the name sign three times] And so that's her sign name. Her name starts with the letter "V." "V" looks like a person dancing. [Frank begins to sign:] I was waiting in line to get my Covid vaccination. And then finally it was my turn, and I'm obviously deaf, so I was using an app on my phone to communicate with the pharmacist. And then the pharmacist said, "Well, I know a little sign language." And I said, You know what? Today, I feel so honored that you gave me the vaccination and you know sign language. Her name is Jasmine, she had really beautiful, black, wavy hair so I gave her the sign name: [signs name sign three times] And it was my first vaccination and when I go for my second, hopefully she'll remember her name sign that I gave her: [signs Jasmine's name sign] [Video ends.]

Yes, I've given many deaf students their name signs.

Name signs often used initials from English,

but now there's more of a desire

to have something that is more personal.

Something that honors their family heritage

or something that lights them up.

It's important to give a sign name

that really considers and values who a person is.

It shouldn't be labels that are thoughtlessly mass produced in a factory.

This one child, a student of mine, was very mischievous,

with a very engaging personality,

so I gave them a sign name that looks like "cute."

Another sign name I gave was

like this, "zoom,"

because this child would like to just kind of explore.

go on adventures, "zooming" around quickly.

People tend to have two or three name signs

throughout their lifetime,

which is similar to hearing people.

You know, they grow up and might have a nickname.

The last person I gave a name sign to,

it was because someone gave her a Signed Exact English sign name

that just didn't match.

And so I created a sign with "dance,"

because she loved to dance.

And so that's her sign name.

Her name starts with the letter "V." "V" looks like a person dancing.

I was waiting in line to get my Covid vaccination.

And then finally it was my turn,

and I'm obviously deaf,

so I was using an app on my phone

to communicate with the pharmacist.

And then the pharmacist said, "Well, I know a little sign language."

And I said, You know what?

Today, I feel so honored that you gave me the vaccination

and you know sign language.

Her name is Jasmine,

she had really beautiful, black, wavy hair -

so I gave her the sign name:

And then she said, "Oh, Jasmine," and signed it back.

And we both had a moment together.

And it was my first vaccination and when I go for my second,

I hope to see her again.

And hopefully she'll remember her name sign that I gave her:

"As a group of deaf women that are Black and Asian, we were creating visibility for us but we were also showing that we have agency," Ms. Pipalia added. "It was a historic moment."

Equally important, Ms. Pipalia said, was including the diverse linguistic perspectives of deaf people, which is why the group included women fluent in ASL as well as Black American Sign Language, or BASL, a variation that is specific to people who are Black and deaf in the United States.

Ms. Gooden said that it was important to be collaborative and inclusive, especially in light of some controversy that accompanied the selection of a name sign for President (One sign under consideration resembled a gesture associated with the Ku Klux Klan. Another has been criticized for being similar to a gang sign.) "We want to definitely stay away from that misinterpretation, especially when choosing a name sign of significance," said Ms. Jones, an ASL and BASL teacher.

I don't know his sign name, sorry.

I just fingerspell his name:

Biden.

Ms. Pipalia said that she hopes that by taking the lead in the initiative to pick a name sign for Vice President Harris, the group is setting an example for other deaf women who feel marginalized and inviting them to take charge in their lives. "I hope that this can open the door for others to follow, just like our vice president, Kamala Harris, is doing," she said.

Hi. . .I'm Susan Council de Manos' Director of Operations. There are a lot of thoughts as 2020 wraps up. It has been an amazing and challenging year.

Looking back there are many things I heart-touch. Yes even with COVID-19! 2020 has been a year of growth, patience, compassion, discovery, and connection. Postponing the Council de Manos' national conference was hard in that it meant we could not get together as well as not hard for it meant we would keep ourselves and each other safe. Council de Manos remains committed to ending injustice.

I do hope your 2020 was full of amazing experiences, valuable lessons, and precious connections. I wish you light and love in the new year.

Hello! I'm Dexter Jones, Council de Manos' Director of Media Relations. Yes, 2020 was a trubiz time warp for so many events that have happened throughout the year.

Thinking back, we keep to use the sociocracy approach to build and grow gradually, since from the beginning, we are changed so much already. By learning from other board of directors and learning from our communities that have expressed.

Now, with the new branch the advisory board, all of us are motivated and looking forward to sharing more information on our platforms to distribute.

Year 2020, what an incredible look back, this is something we not expect to face this journey, Many of us face challenges, struggling, unpacking and navigating through life during COVID-19. However, we continued to complete tasks; planned the national conferences but postponed, attended NAD COR sessions, hosted the virtual Town Hall, Advisory Board, Anti-Violence protocol, advocacy communities.

Transcript:
Hello, I am Roberto Cabrera, Council de Manos's Director of Inclusivity. 2020 is a year we would never forget. 2020 helps us to recognize our organization goal statement, "End Injustice", and the statement helps us to get through the year. With coronavirus (as known as COVID 19), we worked with Gallaudet University sharing data and resources. With Black Lives Matters (BLM) movement, we worked with National Black Deaf Advocacy (NBDA) to promote BLM. With some issues at Gallaudet University, we worked with student organizations to submit letters. For us as an organization, we took time to work and develop our resources. We are thrilled to have a group of Advisory Board Members set up. With their help, we have released our long project, Anti-Violence Protocol. The organization's goal statement definitely helped us get through the tough year, 2020, and we hope we will continue that work into 2021.

During 2020, a highlight of mine was serving on the advisory board with Council de Manos especially when I had the opportunity to be part of their anti-violence movement to create healthier emotions among current and future generations. This gave me reflection of my own experiences of harm as well as causing harm within the community and how I can apply those lessons to my own healing. I am ready to continue transforming in 2021! I want to thank Council de Manos board members for their leadership in bringing the organization to the next level of healing.

2020 is a year filled with mixed emotions - anger, loss, frustration, overwhelmness, and confusion. This includes our Latinx Deaf, DeafBlind, DeafDisabled, Hard of Hearing and Late Deafened community members. Council de Manos went through some changes in 2020. This includes the establishment of the Advisory Committee. After one year of leave, I have returned to my family. My hope for 2021 is a year of clarity, to better understand what's going on in our world. A year we are able to remain connected in solidarity. It is important that we remain safe and remain accountable. Lots of love.

It's time to say farewell to 2020- a difficult year for many of us. I am fortunate and thankful for Council de Manos for their support and blessings as I transitioned out of my role as Director of Manos institute and into our newly formed Advisory Board. My highlight with Council de Manos this 2020 year is the completion of our AntiViolence protocol in both English, Spanish and ASL. The timing was meant to be to release this protocol to our DDBDDHHLD latinx community and others. It's time we start investing in healing energies to reconnecting and elevating each other towards self- fulfillment and continuing with our stories like #C5KnowYourStory , as well our ongoing work to ending injustices.

Y finalmente, en cuanto a los problemas en la Universidad de Gallaudet, trabajamos con organizaciones estudiantiles para enviar cartas. Para nosotros como organización, tomamos el tiempo para trabajar y desarrollar nuestros recursos. Estamos encantados de haber establecido un Comité Consultivo.

To Our Community Members,

The Council de Manos Advisory Board is in collective support with the Council de Manos Board of Directors, who spent two years developing this protocol on how the organization can take action acknowledging accountability for any harm that takes place.

For several years, Council de Manos experienced a time of significant harm within the organization, including among our community members, as a result of the lack of resources and tools to handle conflicts. Council de Manos recognizes and takes responsibility as an organization for the harm caused. From this emerged the need for individual, community and organizational accountability and hence the development of a new protocol for such situations. This protocol was created with the goal of holding a space to create healthier emotions from harm for current and future generations.

In the spirit of transparency, we want to share this tool with our community. Council de Manos, with the guidance of the new Advisory Board and the Board of Directors, is now implementing these specific procedures and practices effective immediately. You are welcome to replicate our model, although we ask that credit be given to Council de Manos, especially with all the hard work that went into the dialogues, training, and emotional aspects.

If you wish to express your thoughts, recommendations, or ideas on this matter, feel free to contact us at advisory@councildemanos.org .

In this together juntos,

Council de Manos
Advisory Board

(Transcripción)

Estimadxs miembrxs comunitarixs,

La Junta Consultativa de Council de Manos damos colectivamente el apoyo a la Junta Ejecutiva de Council de Manos, la cual pasó dos años en el desarrollo de este protocolo sobre cómo reconocer la responsabilidad para cualquier daño que ocurra.

Durante varios años, Council de Manos vivió una época de daño considerable dentro de la organización y entre nuestrxs miembrxs comunitarixs como resultado de la escasez de recursos y herramientas para resolver conflictos. Council de Manos reconoce y asume la responsabilidad como organización por los daños y perjuicios causados. De allí surgió la necesidad de delinear claramente las responsabilidades individuales, comunitarias y organizacionales y así el desarrollo de un nuevo protocolo para tales situaciones. Este protocolo fue creado con el objetivo de mantener un espacio para crear emociones saludables del dolor para las generaciones actuales y futuras.

En aras de la transparencia, queremos compartir este herramiento con nuestra comunidad. Council de Manos, con la orientación de la nueva Junta Consultativa y la Junta Ejecutiva, aplican inmediatamente estos procedimientos y prácticas específicas. Uds. pueden replicar nuestro modelo, aunque solicitamos que le den crédito apropriado al Council de Manos, en especial por realizar una ingente labor con respecto a los diálogos, capacitaciones y aspectos emocionales.

Si Uds. desean expresar sus opiniones, recomendaciones o ideas sobre este asunto, conéctennos en advisory@councildemanos.org.

Estamos en esto juntxs,

Milmaglyn: Hi, I'm Milmaglyn, Conference Chair. Council de Manos wants to thank you for your time to do our survey regarding the conference. Council de Manos Board of Directors and I met on May 26th and discussed the results of the survey. The results show an overwhelming preference to postponing the conference to October 2021. This shows a preference for in-person conference. Our conference will be postponed to 2021. We are hoping that our conference will continue to be in Connecticut. If not, we are hoping that we will have a conference in the Northeast. Council de Manos continues to monitor CDC and state regulations, as changes continue to evolve during this pandemic we will be sure to keep you informed of any changes to our conference planning. We thank you once again for your time and understanding. We look forward to connecting with you all in 2021 to REUNITE, RELEARN & RESIST.

Milmaglyn Morales, Conference Chair

Hi! My name is Milmaglyn and I'm Council de Manos' Conference Chair for our 2020 conference. Council de Manos and I want to provide an update about the 2020 conference. We met Tuesday April 21, 2020 to discuss the upcoming conference and the impact of Covid-19. Many events are being cancelled including Deaf People of Color Conference in June 2020, National Association of the Deaf (NAD) Conference in July 2020, and pride events across the country. Travel restrictions are being implemented and many states continue to have Shelter In Place.

¡Hola! Mi nombre es Milmaglyn y soy la presidenta de la conferencia del Council de Manos para nuestra conferencia del 2020. Council de Manos y yo queremos proporcionar una actualización sobre la conferencia del 2020. Nos reunimos el martes 21 de abril del 2020 para discutir la próxima conferencia y el impacto de Covid-19. Muchos eventos están siendo cancelados, incluyendo la Conferencia de Personas Sordxs de Color en junio del 2020, la conferencia de la Asociacion Nacional de Sordxs (NAD) en julio de 2020 y los eventos de orgullo en todo el país. Se están implementando restricciones de viaje y muchos estados continúan teniendo refugio en el lugar.

Janette Duran, Director of Manos Institute

Council de Manos values our community and everyone's health. With physical distancing mostly practiced all across the nation and the uncertainty of what life will be like in the fall Council de Manos has decided it would be best to cancel the in-person conference for October 2020.

Council de Manos valora nuestra comunidad y la salud de todos. Con el distanciamiento físico practicado principalmente en todo el país y la incertidumbre de cómo será la vida en el otoño, Council de Manos ha decidido que sería mejor cancelar la conferencia en persona para octubre del 2020.

Joseph "JoJo" Ortega Lopez III, Director of Familias

But! We want to check in with the community to see what your thoughts are about having a virtual or online conference. If the community wants this, Council de Manos will move towards a virtual/online conference for October 10-12, 2020.Video Description: Joseph "JoJo" Lopez is wearing a black shirt short sleeve shirt with Council de Manos Logo. JoJo has black hair. His background is of cactus and yellow flower trees and rocks on the ground.----Susan Gonzalez, Director of OperationsA possible idea of what that may look like is 2 workshops each day and a social event. Council de Manos will ask for Call for Presentations applications and set up the schedule with workshops etc. We would want to have a range of workshops the same as if we were having the in-person conference.Video Description: Susan Gonzalez is standing in front of a lime green wall wearing a Council de Manos' Decolonize shirt in red. She also has large dangle earrings in the handshape with rainbow colors. Susan has dark short curly hair, black square glasses, and multiple tattoos are visible on her arms and chest.----Juan "Jon" Ferrales* Have a virtual/online conference October 10-12, 2020Ahora te pedimos a Ti, a la comunidad. ¿Qué quieres? Las dos opciones que vemos en este momento son:Video Description: Jon is wearing black Council de Manos t-shirt. He is standing by a marigold wall with an Italian painting behind him.----Roberto Cabrera, Director of InclusivityPlease click on the link and let us know what your choice is. We are giving two weeks for the community to respond. Our goal is to have a tally of responses by May 22nd as the conference planning committee will meet Tuesday May 26th.

¡Pero! Queremos consultar con la comunidad para ver cuáles son sus pensamientos acerca de tener una conferencia virtual o en línea. Si la comunidad quiere esto Council de Manos avanzará hacia una conferencia virtual/en línea para el 10 a 12 de octubre de 2020.

Descripción del video: Joseph "JoJo" Lopez, lleva una camisa negra de manga corta con el logo de Council de Manos. JoJo tiene el pelo negro. Su fondo es de nopales y flores amarillas y rocas en el suelo.

Una posible idea de cómo puede parecer es tener dos talleres cada día y un evento social. Council de Manos pedirá solicitudes de convocatoria de presentaciones y establecerá el calendario con talleres, etc. Nos gustaría tener una variada de talleres de la misma manera como si tuviéramos la conferencia en persona.

Descripción del video: Susan Gonzalez está de pie frente a una pared verde lima con una camisa de descolonizar de Council de Manos en rojo. También tiene grandes pendientes colgantes en la forma de la mano con colores de arcoíris. Susan tiene el pelo rizado corto oscuro, lentes cuadradas negras, y múltiples tatuajes son visibles en sus brazos y pecho.

Now we ask YOU the community. What do you want? The two options we see right now are:

--

* Reschedule the conference to October 2021.

* Tener una conferencia virtual / en línea del 10 al 12 de octubre de 2020
* Cambiar la conferencia a octubre de 2021. Descripción del video: Jon lleva una camisa negra de Council de Manos. Está de pie junto a una pared de color caléndula con una pintura italiana detrás de él.

Por favor, haga clic en el enlace y háganos saber cuál es su opción. Estamos dando dos semanas para que la comunidad responda.Nuestro objetivo es tener una cuenta de respuestas hasta el 22 de mayo, ya que el comité de planificación de la conferencia se reunirá el martes 26 de mayo.

Transcript: Hi, my name is Milmaglyn Morales and I am the Conference Chair for Council de Manos' 6th Biennial Conference. I hope everyone is keeping themselves safe and healthy during this COVID-19 pandemic. Council de Manos is getting ready to release information about registering for the conference and presenting at the conference. First as conference chair I wanted to communicate with you that Council de Manos and I are fully aware of what is happening and the rapid changes to life as we know it. There is always the potential of COVID-19 having an effect on the conference. We are hopeful that by October 08, 2020 we will be in West Hartford, Connecticut setting things up for our conference. Council de Manos is keeping a close eye on all things related to COVID-19 as well as all recommendations and mandates that are issued by the government. If there are any changes to the conference I will promptly communicate to you the Latinx Deaf community. If for whatever reason the conference has to be cancelled your registration will be refunded 100% and your hotel reservation will be cancelled without cancellation fees. For now I and Council de Manos are moving forward with the conference. Please keep yourself safe and healthy!

Five Tips to Help Your Child Wear a Mask
What is a mask?
It is a face covering that covers your child's nose and mouth. It can take many forms such as a cloth mask, a scarf, a ski style neck warmer, a bandana, or a disposable paper mask. If you have questions about when and where your child needs to wear a mask, please review this information from the NYC Department of Health.

Tips to Help Your Child Wear a Mask

Allow your child to choose the mask style that they like.

Your child may be more interested in a mask that they chose.

Allow your child the opportunity to touch the mask to determine which style or type they would like.

Let them choose the color or pattern, if possible.

Explain to your child why they need to wear a mask.

Be mindful of your child and how information will affect them. Talking about germs may make some kids more anxious.

Look at photos of people wearing masks and talk about the masks.

Consider using a social story. Here's how to create a social story: https://bit.ly/3bjMhyp.

Remember: you may need to talk about this multiple times.

Model mask wearing for your child.

Anytime you as a parent or caregiver wear a mask, you are modeling and showing your child how to wear a mask.

You can use images or videos as models of how to wear a mask.

Practice putting a mask on dolls or stuffed animals.

Try some art projects like coloring or drawing a picture of someone wearing a mask.

Let your child look at themselves in the mirror with a mask on.

Decorate the mask. Think stickers, glitter, paint, or sequins.

Make it a game.

Superhero Game: Superheroes wear masks, so practice superhero poses in the mask.

Funny Face Game: Practice making funny faces while wearing a mask. Guess what kind of funny face your child is making.

Create a routine around wearing the mask.

Pick a specific place to store masks.

Think about adding some reinforcement, such as a fun activity or a special treat after wearing a mask.

The Academy Award winning actress is also set to executive produce.

Academy Award winner Marlee Matlin is heading back to work to headline a new workplace comedy for NBC. According to Deadline, Matlin is set to star in and executive produce the as-yet-unnamed project set in the fast-paced world of sign language interpretation, written by Ben Shelton. The network landed the single-camera comedy in a competitive situation, originally developed by Aaron Kaplan 's Kapital Entertainment and Universal Television.

Based on an idea from Kaplan inspired by sign language interpreters at COVID-19 press conferences, Matlin will star as DJ, the head of a mid-size American Sign Language interpretation company in Los Angeles, who is both "overextended and overconfident." Producing the series alongside Matlin will be Jack Jason, her sign language interpreter of over thirty years.

Primarily a television actress, Matlin has racked up credits playing Deaf characters in a number of shows, including The Magicians, The West Wing, Switched at Birth, and . She also appeared in the 2015 Broadway revival of Spring Awakening and has starred in films like Excision, Some Kind of Beautiful, and The Linguini Incident. Matlin is the only Deaf actress to date to have won an Academy Award - for her role in Children of a Lesser God - and also remains the youngest performer to have won the award for Best Actress. She was most recently featured in Sian Heder 's , which premiered at the 2021 Sundance Film Festival.

Shelton mostly recently directed for Netflix, and also served as creator and showrunner on the Amazon series , produced by Rainn Wilson.
