We are committed to the inclusion of all members from different subgroups by recognizing and celebrating the similarities and differences among all. We also want to collaborate with like-minded individuals, their families, trilingual interpreters, organizations and agencies.<\/p>\n<p>Rationale for name change from NCHDHH to Council de Manos:<br \/>\nThe board reached out to the community to collect ideas, suggestions and feedback on a name change that more accurately reflected the organization\u2019s mission and vision. As a result, the board has agreed to rename NCHDHH to Council de Manos, which is more appropriate in a number of ways.<\/p>\n<p>1) The name is a combination of both English and Spanish.<br \/>\n2) \u201cCouncil\u201d is a word often used in indigenous communities, and is a way of culturally honoring our indigenous ancestors.<br \/>\n3) \u201cManos\u201d means hands in Spanish, and clearly represents the significance of our hands not only in the LDDBDDHHLD communities, but also in Latin American countries and communities.<br \/>\n4) We recognize ASL-English bilingualism. However, ASL is not the only sign language used in the United States, especially among LDDBDDHHLD communities using multiple languages.<\/p>\n<p>Mission: The mission of Council de Manos is to end injustice.<br \/>\nInjustice is found everywhere. Council de Manos is committed to supporting LDDBDDHHLD individuals who are discriminated against or oppressed in any way. We also strive to increase awareness and educate LDDBDDHHLD communities on how to be part of the social justice movement.<\/p>\n<p>Vision: Our vision is for the people we serve to achieve self-fulfillment.<br \/>\nCouncil de Manos encourages members to create their own meaning(s) of self-fulfillment by understanding their heritage, and in turn, creating a community expressing their journey that will last for future generations.<\/p>\n<p>Tagline: Know Your Story.<\/p>\n<p>Council de Manos recognizes that the stories of LDDBDDHHLD individuals are woven through many generations and the collection of personal stories needs to be shared and preserved.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Spanish Transcript:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Razones por el cambio de nombre de NCHDHH a Consejo de Manos:<br \/>\nLa Junta Directiva del Consejo Nacional de Hispanos Sordos\/Hipoac\u00fasicos (NCHDHH) tuvo un debate acerca del nombre de la organizaci\u00f3n y desarroll\u00f3 el siguiente razonamiento:<br \/>\nLa palabra \u201cHispano\u201d no define la misi\u00f3n de nuestra organizaci\u00f3n, en el sentido de que no da la bienvenida a las diversas comunidades latinas, tales como: Sordos, Sordos-Ciegos, Sordos con Discapacidades, Hipoac\u00fasicos, o personas que perdieron su audici\u00f3n a una edad Avanzada (LDDBDDHHLD, por sus siglas en ingl\u00e9s). Nosotros estamos comprometidos a incluir a todos los miembros de los subgrupos, reconociendo y celebrando las similitudes y diferencias entre todos ellos. Tambi\u00e9n, deseamos colaborar con las personas que comparten nuestra manera de pensar, sus familias, int\u00e9rpretes triling\u00fces, organizaciones y agencias.<br \/>\n(*Latinx ha sido definido para crear inclusi\u00f3n entre todas las identidades sexuales)<\/p>\n<p>La directiva solicit\u00f3 las opiniones, ideas, sugerencias y comentarios de la comunidad en cu\u00e1nto al cambio de nombre. El objetivo es tener un nombre que refleje claramente la misi\u00f3n y visi\u00f3n de la organizaci\u00f3n. Como resultado, la directiva acord\u00f3 cambiar el nombre de NCHDHH a Consejo de Manos, el cual es un nombre m\u00e1s apropiado por diferentes razones:<\/p>\n<p>1) El nombre es una combinaci\u00f3n de ambos idiomas, ingl\u00e9s y espa\u00f1ol (Council de Manos)<br \/>\n2) La palabra consejo, en ingl\u00e9s (council) es utilizada frecuentemente por las comunidades ind\u00edgenas, y es una manera de honorar la cultura de nuestros ancestros.<br \/>\n3) La palabra \u201cManos\u201d claramente representa el significado de nuestras manos, no solo dentro de las comunidades LDDBDDHHLD, pero tambi\u00e9n en los pa\u00edses y comunidades de Latinoam\u00e9rica.<br \/>\n4) Reconocemos el biling\u00fcismo, lenguaje de se\u00f1as americano (ASL) y el ingl\u00e9s. Sin embargo, ASL no es el \u00fanico lenguaje de se\u00f1as utilizado en los Estados Unidos, especialmente dentro de las comunidades LDDBDDHHLD que utilizan m\u00faltiples lenguajes.<\/p>\n<p>Misi\u00f3n: La misi\u00f3n del Consejo de Manos es darle fin a la injusticia.<br \/>\nLa injusticia existe dondequiera. El Consejo de Manos se compromete a apoyar a las personas de las comunidades LDDBDDHHLD que sufren de discriminaci\u00f3n u opresi\u00f3n de cualquier tipo. Tambi\u00e9n, nos hemos propuesto a incrementar la toma de conciencia y educar a las comunidades LDDBDDHHLD en c\u00f3mo pueden formar parte del movimiento de justicia social.<\/p>\n<p>Visi\u00f3n: Nuestra visi\u00f3n es que las personas a las cuales servimos lleguen a obtener su realizaci\u00f3n personal.<\/p>\n<p>Consejo de Manos anima a sus miembros a que analicen y definan el significado de la \u201crealizaci\u00f3n personal\u201d de manera individual. Lo cual debe de ser elaborado mediante la comprensi\u00f3n de sus herencias culturales, as\u00ed se podr\u00e1 crear una comunidad que expresa una trayectoria que durar\u00e1 por generaciones.<\/p>\n<p>Eslogan: Conozca su Historia.<\/p>\n<p>El Consejo de Manos reconoce que las historias de las personas LDDBDDHHLD est\u00e1n entrelazadas a trav\u00e9s de muchas generaciones y la colecci\u00f3n de historias personales necesitan ser compartidas y preservadas.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Council de Manos Announcement: Council de Manos in ASL Visit our website at http:\/\/www.councildemanos.org Anuncio: Council de Manos en Lengua de Se\u00f1as Mexicana (LSM) https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=Zi65Zdo3MD0 Visit our website at http:\/\/www.councildemanos.org English Transcript: The NCHDHH board members discussed the organization name&hellip;<\/p>\n<p class=\"more-link-p\"><a class=\"more-link\" href=\"https:\/\/deafnetwork.com\/wordpress\/blog\/2015\/06\/12\/announcement-council-de-manos-in-asl\/\">Read more &rarr;<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_crdt_document":"","advanced_seo_description":"","jetpack_seo_html_title":"","jetpack_seo_noindex":false,"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[2],"tags":[22156,23805,1629,23,23806,23804,23808,68,23809,23807,13723],"class_list":["post-31110","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-deaf-news","tag-14-0958-post-date-8142014-title-sign-language-adjunct-teacher-city-home-based-state-in-description-company-summary-connections-education-is-a-leading","tag-al","tag-american-sign-language","tag-asl","tag-council-de-manos","tag-council-de-manos-en-lengua-de-senas-mexicana","tag-deaf-disabled","tag-deaf-blind","tag-hard-of-hearing-and-late-deafened","tag-latinx-deaf","tag-lsm"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_likes_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p752R-85M","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":33317,"url":"https:\/\/deafnetwork.com\/wordpress\/blog\/2016\/04\/13\/booster-fundraiser-campaign-iniciativa-de-la-campana-para-recaudar-fondos\/","url_meta":{"origin":31110,"position":0},"title":"Booster Fundraiser Campaign \/ Iniciativa de la Campa\u00f1a para Recaudar Fondos","author":"Chrissy Snider","date":"April 13, 2016","format":false,"excerpt":"Do you wish you could invest in the lives of Latinx Deaf, DeafBlind, Deaf Disabled, Hard of Hearing and Late Deafened Communities?
