With the support of her quirky fellow waitresses and a new romance, Jenna finds the perfect recipe for courage.

Based on the 2007 film by the same name, features original music and lyrics by Grammy winning musician Sara Bareilles ("Love Song," "Brave") and a book by Jessie Nelson.

Through our program, youth can participate in a variety of weekend recreational and cultural activities. The DYFP attempts to break down communication barriers by offering American Sign Language classes to families and friends of deaf or hard of hearing youth.

In addition, the DYFP offers occasional educational workshops and solicits ideas and feedback by hosting annual open meetings with a DYFP advisory committee. In an on-going effort to keep deaf youth and their families informed as well as to promote deaf awareness, the DYFP publishes informative monthly Bulletins and collaborates with other local deaf related organizations.

Boston Area American Sign Language Meetup 

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
What we're about

We are a group of Deaf, Hard of Hearing, and Signers who meet every week to chat in American Sign Language. This group is open to people who speaks American Sign Language. We especially encourage people to come to our group who want to HAVE FUN while socializing with all sorts of different people! This is not a study group nor class! It's a great group for practicing having real conversations in American Sign Language.

We are a bunch of people who speaks American Sign Language, and who want to get better and better at signing. Some of us want to become interpreters or are in interpreting programs. Others work with Deaf people or have Deaf family members. We have American Sign Language students, pros, and everything in between. Some of us are Deaf and just want to hang out with other fun Deaf, hard-of-hearing, or hearing people who sign. Essentially, we are a social group brought together because we love American Sign Language and we want to have a place where we can socialize, get to know one another, and practice our American Sign Language skills.

Boston Area American Sign Language Meetup welcomes and celebrates diversity in our membership! We do not tolerate audism, racism, sexism, homophobia, or any other type of discriminatory behavior at our meetings.

Group rules:

1. Sign up as member when you join

2. RSVP when you attend any of our ASL Meetups to make it easy for organizer to keep an record of attendances

3. Please treat all members with courtesy and respect--both online and in person.

4. Membership is at the discretion of the organizers, and you can be removed from the group at any time.

We hope to see you at a Meetup soon!
