Where to Learn ASL in Atlanta, Georgia?

Tuesday January 31, 2006
I am currently attending college in Atlanta, GA and was wondering if anyone could inform me of a school, community, or anyplace to continue learning American Sign Language? Even if it is just a place to hang out with deaf and HOH people my age, it would be greatly appretiated. I, myself, am not deaf/HOH but I have always been interested in the culture since the second grade and got the chance to start to formally learn the language in 11th grade.

I have learned alot about asl by getting involved in the deaf group at Buckhead Church in Atlanta. Everyone is helpful. I am also hearing but have learned so much through my new deaf and hoh friends there. I am also thinking of becoming certified to become interpreter. Thanks for the help looking for classes!
