The World Federation of the Deaf (WFD) is concerned that the right to sign language is recurrently being breached by national government policies for newborn hearing screening and detection and early intervention services that exclude the opportunity for families and carers of deaf infants and children to be informed about the benefits of their national/Indigenous sign languages and to receive support to learn and communicate in the national/Indigenous sign language(s) in addition to the written/spoken language of their country.
