CHIP
Sign Language Curriculum
For more information, contact
Jennie Germano, jgermano@csdb.org
Approximately half of the families receiving services from CHIP
choose a communication approach that includes the use of sign
language. In-home sign language instruction provides the
opportunity for parents to learn sign language in their natural
environment. The sign language instructor helps family members
develop the sign skills they need to provide a language-rich model
for their child. The CHIP sign language instructor can be an
important member of the family’s intervention team, helping parents
to become skilled sign communicators.
