Description: How Do We Keep Deaf People Safe During Natural Disasters? Severe weather events can turn deadly quick and it's important to keep informed before and while they happen. If you or someone you know is deaf or hard of hearing and is in need of emotional support related to a disaster, the Disaster Distress Helpline offers a direct videophone option for American Sign Language (ASL) users. This service is answered 24/7 by trained crisis workers fluent in ASL and can be accessed using any videophone-enabled device and dialing 1-800-985-5990 or via the DDH website at disasterdistress.samhsa.gov.
