Hi Rock Chick,

It's a difficult and complex area to get into. Suggestions might be to as said already, to get in touch with social service. Failing that get a teaching diploma as a registered classroom assistant for learning disabilities. I'm sure that there would be a few placements, as there is not that much calling for signers.

Something else to consider would be working in the media i.e television as a newscast signer. Now there would be an accomplishment!!!
