Modern Deaf Communication
A deaf service organization providing needed educational, employment and communication services and products to deaf people in need need which no other deaf service agency, Federal or State Government Office, or school for the deaf is contributing.
Modern Deaf Communication, Inc. is a non-profit entity under the OCDAC tax-exempt status with a vision of promise and triumph over the problems of the deaf, but a vision based on hope and faith as much as on science and common sense. The worst problems of the deaf are terrible deaf illiteracy and unemployment which we believe can be wiped out in our time. We believe that the isolation and debilitating dependency on society suffered by the deaf can be vanquished and replaced with a new, strong sense of participation and belonging to the country and society of which they are citizens.

Even the late Morton Warnow would be very proud of this!

We Helped Deaf People Find Jobs With Info Booth At Job Fair
We helped deaf people find jobs by educating employers of the easy accommodations for deaf people. This took place in Fountain Valley, California. Notice no videophone on our booth? It is our message that ASL is not something that'll be part of the deaf future. It's also our message that deaf people can succeed using English
THE ENGLISH EDUCATION OF DEAF CHILDREN.
NEW! THE WRITING COMMUNICATION METHOD OF READING-WRITING INSTRUCTION FOR DEAF CHILDREN.
Deaf children will learn English fast and well the way everybody learns English -- by communicating face-to-face in English with their teachers, parents and each other. They’ll use face-to-face keyboard communication equipment in the classroom and at home. Teachers and parents now have the tool they need to give deaf children the literacy skills they need for life. Teachers can now help create a thoroughly literate deaf society.
TEACHING DEAF CHILDREN HOW TO TOUCH-TYPE.
Deaf children are taught to use their fingers to learn touch-typing as they are taught to use their fingers to learn sign language. The children learn that it is fun inventing their own keyboard exercises. They learn the keyboard in a week, achieve growing command in a month.

A program which keeps parents from losing their deaf children, which shows the parents how to become thoroughly involved in their children's lives by teaching their children how to read and write, and teaching the children to communicate in English with others and themselves.
ABOUT COMMUNICATION EQUIPMENT.
Don’t be fooled by all the equipment “out there.” Keep your eye on the main communication and social problem facing deaf people: not communicating face-to-face with hearing people in English anywhere, anytime, about anything. Good, cheap modified TTYs solves this problem as nothing else does.

GREAT EXPECTATIONS.
A FUTURE OF AFFLUENCE AND LIFE-FULFILLMENT. Starting in this decade.
THE DEAF IN THE MILITARY.
The deaf becoming First Class Citizens as soldiers in the Armed Forces of the United States. A measure of personal pride never known before to the deaf.
HYPOTHETICAL.
A look at the psychic damage wrought by the lingual incapacitation due to deafness, and the wherewithal to correct the incapacitation.
When used face-to-face, English is the “Money-Making Language of The Deaf.” Deaf people don’t need a college education to get a good job. If they have English skills, they can use face-to-face communication equipment to compete most effectively with hearing people for the same good jobs hearing people get. A money-making future for deaf job-seekers is out there waiting to be pursued and enjoyed.
Mark my words. Before this decade is up, we will see signs of new affluence achieved by members of the deaf community, but an affluence traced directly to the use of English face-to-face in the workplace. Deaf
people in English-dominant jobs with employers who never before hired deaf people for any jobs will become the norm. These will be jobs paying better money and offering greater job benefits and job security than the jobs deaf people have gotten in the past. This will happen because job-placement counselors will help make it happen.
Similarly, educators will be playing a new role in teaching deaf children how to read and write. They’ll be using the Writing Communication Method of English Instruction to give deaf children communicative English literacy by age 10. This method together with the new DVD Video Dictionary will enable teachers to produce deaf students graduating from high school with usable 25,000 word vocabularies. A very new and wonderful future awaits the deaf in the 21st Century.
