OUR MISSION
Sign Language Instructors' Pool [SLIP] has changed its name to more accurately reflect our mission to promote the teaching and use of sign language. It is our goal to support instructors to maintain the integrity of sign language through improved teaching methodologies, collaborative planning, and interactive learning.
WHO WE ARE
Sign Language Instructors Project of Connecticut was founded in May of 1976 as the Sign Language Instructors' Pool. SLIP is an organization designed by and for sign language instructors. For the past 40 years, SLIP has been providing instruction to those interested in teaching sign language. It has held to the highest standards of training to ensure that its instructors are skilled and competent.
SLIP invites all sign language instructors to join a network of colleagues who will provide support by sharing ideas and teaching strategies, suggesting resources, participating in training, and providing feedback about needs in the communities we serve.
