• No public schools for Deaf students in Nicaragua exist.
• Nicaraguan Sign Language is a new language that emerged from Deaf children.
• Deaf children need communication and socialization using Nicaraguan Sign Language to access basic education.
• Lack of education leads to fewer employment opportunities.

• Nicaragua is one of the most impoverished countries in the Americas.
• Deafness is highly prevalent in Nicaragua, but the Deaf have no access to Public Schools.
