  itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p>Cuando el a\u00f1o escolar en ºÚ¹Ï³ÔÁÏÍø estaba por terminar, a la estudiante Jackie Jackson y a su compa\u00f1era Allie Myers les dio vueltas una idea en la cabeza: \u00bfc\u00f3mo evitar que se les olvidara todo lo aprendido de lenguaje de se\u00f1as durante el verano? Quien haya intentado aprender otro idioma sabe perfectamente que, si no se practica a diario, las se\u00f1as y la fluidez se van perdiendo rapid\u00edsimo.<\/p>\n<p>La verdad es que para ellas dos la cosa va en serio. Ambas est\u00e1n en su \u00faltimo a\u00f1o de universidad. Jackie, estudiante de Ciencias de la Comunicaci\u00f3n, ha vivido en Oreg\u00f3n desde los 16 a\u00f1os. Tras haber nacido en Alemania y vivido en 7 estados diferentes como California, Oregon y Nuevo M\u00e9xico, descubri\u00f3 una conexi\u00f3n personal cercana con este tema: su t\u00eda y su hermana (quienes viven en Alemania) tienen p\u00e9rdida auditiva, y ella es la \u00fanica en su familia que aprendi\u00f3 se\u00f1as. Por su parte, Allie, originaria de Grants Pass, Oreg\u00f3n, creci\u00f3 en Rogue Valley y vivi\u00f3 unos a\u00f1os en Salt Lake despu\u00e9s de la preparatoria; actualmente estudia Desarrollo Infantil Temprano con la meta de cursar una maestr\u00eda en Consejer\u00eda de Salud Mental Cl\u00ednica para convertirse en terapeuta infantil especializada en ni\u00f1os sordos.<\/p>\n<p>Para el ciclo 2026\u20132027, Jackie asumi\u00f3 el puesto de vicepresidenta y tesorera del Club de Lenguaje de Se\u00f1as de ºÚ¹Ï³ÔÁÏÍø, mientras que Allie es la presidenta. Adem\u00e1s, las dos est\u00e1n en su segundo a\u00f1o del programa de <a href=\"https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/spanish\/programs\/conversational-american-sign-language\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Micro-Credencial de ASL Conversacional<\/a>. Como l\u00edderes estudiantiles en el campus, saben que tienen que ponerse las pilas con su propio nivel de se\u00f1as para poder ayudar de verdad a los dem\u00e1s compa\u00f1eros del club.<\/p>\n<p>Aunque van a los eventos de Deaf Activities of Southern Oregon (DASO), que es un grupo organizado por Danica Rice en donde se juntan dos veces al mes, ellas sent\u00edan que necesitaban mucha m\u00e1s pr\u00e1ctica en el mundo real. As\u00ed que, en lugar de quedarse esperando a que alguien m\u00e1s creara algo, decidieron tomar la iniciativa y hacerlo ellas mismas.<\/p>\n<p>As\u00ed naci\u00f3 Community Thru Practice (CTP), un espacio totalmente gratuito dise\u00f1ado para personas que tal vez no tienen los recursos para pagar una clase formal. CTP es un punto de encuentro 100% inclusivo, pensado no solo para estudiantes, sino para personas sordas, no verbales y toda la comunidad local. Es clave destacar que no buscan educar ni ense\u00f1ar de forma acad\u00e9mica, ni fuerzan a nadie a participar de cierta manera; no hay presi\u00f3n por hablar, ya que entienden que existen m\u00faltiples formas de comunicarse. Se trata de un entorno seguro y relajado para practicar, compartir y conectar de verdad a trav\u00e9s de las se\u00f1as o el formato con el que cada quien se sienta c\u00f3modo.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-av_textblock-dc18aaf88c80fec6aff23aa0cfe18acf\">\n#top

itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p>When the school year at ºÚ¹Ï³ÔÁÏÍø was coming to an end, student Jackie Jackson and her classmate Allie Myers had an idea spinning in their heads: how could they keep from forgetting everything they had learned in sign language over the summer? Anyone who has tried to learn another language knows all too well that without daily practice, signs and fluency fade away fast.<\/p>\n<p>The truth is, for the two of them, this was serious business. Both are in their senior year of college. Jackie is a Communication major who has lived in Oregon since she was 16. After being born in Germany and living in 7 different states, including California, Oregon and New Mexico, she discovered a close personal connection to this topic: her aunt and her sister (who live in Germany) are hard of hearing, and she is the only one in her family who learned to sign. Meanwhile, Allie, originally from Grants Pass, Oregon, grew up in the Rogue Valley and lived in Salt Lake for a few years after high school; she is currently studying Early Childhood Development with the goal of pursuing a Master&#8217;s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling to become a child therapist specializing in deaf children.<\/p>\n<p>For the 2026\u20132027 academic year, Jackie took on the role of Vice President and Treasurer of ºÚ¹Ï³ÔÁÏÍø\u2019s Sign Language Club, while Allie serves as President. Additionally, both are in their second year of the <a href=\"https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/spanish\/programs\/conversational-american-sign-language\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Conversational ASL Micro-Credential program<\/a>. As student leaders on campus, they knew they needed to step up their own sign language skills to truly support their fellow club members.<\/p>\n<p>Although they attend events organized by Deaf Activities of Southern Oregon (DASO), a group led by Danica Rice that meets twice a month, they felt they needed much more real-world practice. So, instead of waiting for someone else to create something, they decided to take the initiative and do it themselves.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s how Community Thru Practice (CTP) was born: a completely free space designed for people who may not have the resources to pay for a formal class. CTP is a 100% inclusive gathering place, intended not only for students but also for deaf and nonverbal people and the entire local community. It\u2019s important to note that they do not seek to educate or teach in an academic way, nor do they force anyone to participate in a certain way; there\u2019s no pressure to speak, as they understand that there are many ways to communicate. It\u2019s a safe and relaxed environment for practicing, sharing, and truly connecting through sign language or whatever format each person feels comfortable with.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-mulhx1gx-5ce410febb0d56d82c9c7ae1d4d173b0\">\n#top .av_textblock_section.av-mulhx1gx-5ce410febb0d56d82c9c7ae1d4d173b0 .avia_textblock{\nfont-size:26px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-mulhx1gx-5ce410febb0d56d82c9c7ae1d4d173b0 '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock rising-quote'  itemprop=\"text\" ><blockquote>\n<p class=\"dig-4\" style=\"text-align: left\">&#8220;We created this space not to teach or represent the Deaf community, but to build an inclusive environment where all perspectives and life experiences are valued and respected&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"pop-8\" style=\"font-size: 0.6em;text-align: right\">\u2013 Jackie Jackson<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-muli0pkn-48cf4d79585b601b190bb6cba0d19c42\">\n#top .av_textblock_section.av-muli0pkn-48cf4d79585b601b190bb6cba0d19c42 .avia_textblock{\nfont-size:15px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-muli0pkn-48cf4d79585b601b190bb6cba0d19c42 '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p>To make it happen, they partnered with The Centre, a wellness-focused space founded by Breanna Autolitano in 2024, strategically located on the second floor of the Rogue Valley Mall.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div id='av_section_3' aria-label='ºÚ¹Ï³ÔÁÏÍø English Stories -
