ASL Interest Group

Our Mission

The ASL Interest Group (AIG) aims to supplement medical students in their journey to becoming better-informed physicians by introducing American Sign Language and Deaf culture, while bringing awareness to barriers D/deaf individuals may face while accessing healthcare. AIG events include introductory ASL and Deaf culture sessions, participation in Deaf community events, and guest lectures regarding intersections with the healthcare field.
