NMSC Makes a Mark at the 7th Philippine Federation of the Deaf General Assembly

May 25, 2015, CAGAYAN DE ORO – The NMS Cares team went up and running in full gear at the Philippine Federation of the Deaf General Assembly at the Malasag Eco-village in Cugman, Cagayan De Oro. The event, which ran from May 14 to May 17 was hosted by the Deaf Association of Misamis Oriental, bearing the theme, “One Family, One Community”.

NMSC showcased its varied programs at the event’s bazaar exhibit, ranging from enhancing Deaf education through the use of technology to helping forge a strong communication between the Deaf and hearing community.

To further demonstrate one of its most in-demand programs, convention attendees were treated to a unique experience as iPads being used for the Learning thru Interactive Visual Education (LIVE) Program were made available for everyone to explore. This allowed the NMSC team to show delegates from students to Deaf educators and advocates how one of its programs is being implemented, giving them an opportunity to consider applying the same program to their respective communities.

NMSC’s programs have been structured and developed using a framework that would allow any other organization with the same goals and advocacies as NMSC, to run them among its beneficiaries. In a move that will allow more Deaf individuals to benefit from NMSC’s programs, the organization have proposed during the GA for its programs to be used by the different Deaf organizations, academic institutions, and LGUs advocating for the Deaf. NMSC will give free services to train members and customize each program to better fit the needs of their respective beneficiaries.

The PFD General Assembly provided NMSC a great opportunity to connect and interact with the Deaf community on a national level and has given the organization a new level of understanding on the specific needs of the Deaf community it continues to advocate for.

Apart from running an information booth, NMSC also presented a short video presentation during the event’s opening night, which allowed the delegates a glimpse of NMSC’s past and ongoing initiatives.

Recently concluded NMSC basic sign language workshop spawns potential interpreters

March 23, 2015, BAGUIO CITY - NMS Cares concluded its Basic Sign Language Workshop held at Helping Hands, Healing Hearts Ministries Children's Recovery Unit-Baguio City last March 20, 2015.

NMSC Basic Sign Language Workshop class from Helping Hands, Healing Hears Ministries - CRU

NMSC Basic Sign Language Workshop class from Children's Home

Having completed months of training beginning October 22, 2014, the participants of the workshop comprising of volunteers from Helping Hands, Healing Hearts Ministries- CRU and Children’s Home were awarded individual certificates after completing an intensive workshop where they were taught the basics of sign language.” Aside from certificates of completion signed by NMSC founder, Martin Eyking, select members of the group also received certificates of recognition for showing exemplary skills in sign language.

For outstanding efforts in attendance and mastery of basic sign language, volunteers Eliza Bayasen, Karlo Tibio and Jeaneth Tibio were given certificates of recognition.

With the recommendation of Deaf Education Coordinators, Nicole Goliat and Yvonne Celeste, they are set to take their skills further through advanced sign language classes.  In this manner, the sign language workshop serves its purpose not only of teaching sign language to the hearing community, but also in pooling potential interpreters.

The recently concluded workshop is part of the Family Oneness Nurturing the Deaf (FOND Program). The thrust of the FOND Program is to help strengthen the bond between Deaf child and his or her family members through constant communication. As Helping Hands Healing Hearts Ministries- CRU and Children’s Home both serve in fostering children and giving them a home, their newly acquired skill in using sign language would best benefit the Deaf children under their care.

After finishing the basic sign language class, the volunteers are encouraged to take advanced sign language class, where they can continue to hone their skills in sign if they wish to volunteer as interpreters in the future.
