Deaf Awareness
This project was created from my many years of working with a deaf colleague who is proficient at lip reading. After encountering another possible deaf workmate who couldn't lip read, I realized that the office may need a little refresher on how to best communicate with someone who cannot hear and who also may not be capable of reading lips.
