Friends Like Me


SignOn Friends like Me is a new subscription service within the SignOn Platform that promotes social language and peer to peer companionship in small groups. Deaf and Hard of Hearing (DHH) children connect with 2-3 other DHH children under the guidance of one of our DHH Adult Mentors. Through a live, two-way video session, Friends Like Me provides fun social learning experiences for DHH children around the country.

SignOn Friends like Me is for Deaf and Hard of Hearing (DHH) children who use American Sign Language (ASL), those who use Oral Communication (do not use ASL) and those who use Total Communication (a combination of both oral skills and ASL). This Is a great opportunity for DHH children to connect with someone who is DHH similar in communication style, improve on their social skills, and to make new friends. During these live 30 minute sessions, children participate in conversations, play games, have book talks, and participate in fun activities, etc...

  • Seeing and interacting with other families with babies who are DHH.
  • The smiles my kids have when they finish their session!
  • That my daughter who is Deaf can communicate with other children around the U.S. that share a similar experience. I love that she can see that there are many other kids like her.
