Abstract
Allison Vande Velde has been a bindery worker in Printing Services for 21 years, but there were times the fact that she is deaf left her feeling isolated from her colleagues.
“I felt left out because they weren’t able to communicate with me,” says Vande Velde, who was born deaf and began learning American Sign Language (ASL) when she was 13 years old.
