About DawnSign

About Us

Rooted in Deaf Culture. Built for the Future.

For 47 years, DawnSign has been the leading Deaf-owned publisher of ASL instruction: the trusted source for Signing Naturally and the curriculum, tools, and resources that educators, interpreters, and families rely on across ASL, Deaf Studies & Culture, ASL Linguistics, family learning, and interpreting education. Every product we create comes from within the Deaf-World, by Deaf people, for the Deaf and hearing communities alike.

That legacy is exactly why we can't stand still. We're rebuilding how our community learns for today: a new website, an expanding digital ecosystem, and tools like ASL Pal that bring real-time, native-signer feedback to ASL learners everywhere. The formats are changing. What doesn't change is the authenticity behind them. Every product still starts with Deaf culture and Deaf voices at the center.

Same roots. Better ways to connect, learn, and thrive in ASL.
