VoicePrint’s ReSight is looking for writers!
This Fall, VoicePrint, a division of Accessible Media Inc., will be airing a special program titled, ReSight. Accessible Media is a not-for-profit multimedia organization operating two broadcast services, VoicePrint and The Accessible Channel – TACtv. AMI serves more than five million Canadians who are blind, with low vision, print-restricted, deaf or hearing-impaired, learning disabled, mobility impaired, in need of literacy skills or learning English as a second language, by making print, broadcast and online media accessible.
ReSight focuses on young writers either with a disability or writing about disability. We aim towards the re-imagining of disability through the perspective of those with an intimate knowledge of disability and want to expose young writers to a wide audience. We are looking for young writers who have written stories – either short or full-length novels, fiction or non-fiction, dramatic or hilarious – and would be willing to share it with our audience on air followed by a telephone or in-studio interview.

Welcome to DYT Summer 2011! We have several awesome programs planned for a variety of age groups. Our programs all are signing programs with many d/Deaf mentors so we can provide a rich experience for deaf and hard of hearing children and youth. In addition, several of our programs are open to hearing siblings and children of Deaf adults that use sign language.
