Chapter 19 Reading:Working with Deaf Clients: An Interview with Valentino Vasquez and Johanna Larson 19-1Our Interviewees 19-1 Valentino Vasquez, MA, is a third-generation Latino who was born deaf in a Spanish-speaking extended family. His wife is deaf and their two children are hearing. As a child, he attended a deaf and hard-of-hearing program within a mainstream public school and attended Gallaudet University for several years. He teaches American Sign Language (ASL) and Deaf Culture courses in the Communication Disorders and Sciences program at the University of Oregon. He is involved with organizations supporting the Deaf community, both on-campus and off. Johanna Larson, MS, is a native ASL speaker whose second language is English. She is the eldest hearing daughter of profoundly deaf parents in an extended Northern European American family with many other deaf members. Her father became deaf from spinal meningitis at age 3. Her parents met at Gallaudet University. She teaches basic linguistic principles of ASL, as well as Deaf Culture and Community Studies in the Communication Disorders and Sciences program at the University of Oregon. 19-1aThe Interview Question: Would you give a brief overview of “Deaf Culture,” including your participation and relationship to Deaf culture? Vasquez: This really relates to language as well as identity, including values, perceptions, and beliefs, as well as social customs. In Deaf culture, the language is ASL—using a manual communication as opposed to a spoken language communication. I participate in Deaf culture through the Oregon Association of the Deaf, Oregon Registry of Interpreters for the Deaf, and socializing with members of the Deaf community. Sometimes Jo and I will host Deaf events, such as performers or speakers. We reach out to the Deaf community and invite them to attend these events, and that becomes part of our Deaf community and therefore our Deaf culture. One example of Deaf culture would be social customs. For example, when an event is over, people often notice that Deaf people stay well after closing hours. The lights will go off and people will say, “You all need to leave,” and Deaf people tend to stay, whereas hearing people will leave on time. Deaf people often will go out of the building, but then we’ll stand outside under the street lights and continue the conversations. It’ll whittle down until the last person is there. That’s a really big part of Deaf culture. I’m involved with the Deaf community here in Oregon with a few organizations that support the Deaf, for example, the Oregon Association for the Deaf (OAD) and the Oregon Registry of Interpreters for the Deaf (ORID). Here on campus at the University of Oregon, I’m involved with the Disability Studies Advisory Board, which advises and suggests courses that can be used for a Disability Studies minor. The ASL sequence and the ASL culture course is part of that minor. Question: How do you see Deaf culture as similar to, ...

This slide show supports a workshop presented in March 2010 at the Fulfilling the Promise Conference in Oconomowoc, WI. While this was a 75 minute workshop, it can easily be expanded to 2 hours, half day or full day presentations. PLEASE NOTE: This presentation was originally titled "Bore No More." Five months AFTER this presentation was delivered and uploaded, the phrase "Bore No More" was trademarked by Jonathan Petz of Powell, OH. The title has been changed in order to comply with federal trademark rules.
