Diving Into Inclusion

“Witnessing the Atomic Hands diving event was an unforgettable experience. What made this event so extraordinary was the deep connection forged through ASL inside the exhibit,” said Milligan. “Typically, diver interactions are limited to waves or a few universal signs, but this was entirely different. Deaf and hard-of-hearing visitors were able to engage in real-time, meaningful conversations with the ASL-trained divers—asking questions, sharing comments, and experiencing a true dialogue.”
