Past Events
Finger Lakes Deaf Health
September 22, 2018 the Finger Lakes Deaf Health Fair was held at the Student Life Center on the campus of RIT/NTID. At that time, the Deaf Community included the students living on and off campus. This setting allowed everyone the opportunity to interact with the providers to discuss topics regarding health and health education ASL.
Award Ceremony
December 2, 2017, the College at Brockport hosted its Winter Gala at the Wintergarden conference center in downtown Rochester. Two awards were presented for Community Partnership – Partners in Deaf Health, Inc was one of the recipients. (Pictured: Arlene Hsieh Sankey held the award with Dr. Tamala David.)
Rochester Deaf Festival
June 17, 2017, the Rochester Deaf Festival was held at Genesee Valley Park. Partners in Deaf Health, Inc members provided programs in ASL to the attendees. These presentations were akin to the Deaf Health Talks and presentations at the Finger Lakes Deaf Health Fair. At this event, PDH collected names of community members who were interested to join the PDH Board.
Finger Lakes Deaf Health Fair
September 24, 2016, Finger Lakes Deaf Health Fair was returned to the back again at the same location as the last Deaf Health Fair event. The number of vendors increased by more than 50% participation from previous years. Health topic presentations were updated for attendees to know. Presentations and health topics were chosen from the community’s input to their interests.
Finger Lakes Deaf Health Fair
April 26, 2014, Finger Lakes Deaf Health Fair returned. This year the event was held at Seton Catholic School at Our Lady of Lourdes. The change in venue was necessitated due the overwhelming success and attendance from the previous year. The attendance was overwhelming. More individuals than the previous year participated. All were thrilled with the opportunity to learn more about health topics and updates provided in ASL. Exhibitors provided pamphlets, promotional items, and brochures to attendees to take home. Prior to their departure, attendees were asked to provide suggestions of health topics they thought interesting. This equipped PDH with the information needed to focus the Deaf Health Talks on topics the community wanted.
Finger Lakes Deaf Health Fair
April 22, 2013, Partners in Deaf Health proudly hosted the first Finger Lakes Deaf Health Fair at Rochester School for the Deaf. Health presentations in ASL were provided for all attendees. Approximately 25 health educational/informational exhibits offered services and programs to the Deaf/Hard-of-Hearing participants. Hearing attendees able to understand sign language also benefited from the experience.
