The National Association of the Deaf (NAD) and the NFL proudly announce that Super Bowl LVII in Arizona on February 12, 2023 will feature Deaf performers Troy Kotsur, Colin Denny, and Justina Miles as part of pregame festivities. Oscar winner and Arizona native Troy Kotsur will provide the American Sign Language (ASL) performance of the National Anthem. Colin Denny, a Deaf Native American from Navajo Nation in Arizona, will perform America the Beautiful through a blend of ASL and North American Indian Sign Language. For the first time ever, there will be an ASL rendition of Lift Every Voice and Sing at the Super Bowl, done by Justina Miles, a Philadelphia born performer now living in Maryland. On top of that, Justina will also perform in ASL the music of Rhianna during the Apple Music Super Bowl Halftime Show. Information on where to best watch these sign language performances will be shared when it becomes available.

NCC Department of Emergency Management
The City of Newark in cooperation with the New Castle
County Office of Emergency Management will be
conducting a Basic CERT training course on Friday, May
19 from 4:30 – 9:30 p.m and Saturday, May 20 from 8 a.m. –
4 p.m. This 12-hour training program will be provided free
of charge at the Newark Senior Center, located at 200
White Chapel Drive.
During this two-day, 12-hour course of instruction,
students will learn a variety of hazard awareness and
emergency preparedness skills which will make them and
their families better equipped to deal with all hazardous
emergency situations, as well as assist first responders
and emergency management officials in certain aspects
of response and post event recovery activities.
Course curriculum includes American Heart Association
CPR/AED Certification, basic first aid, hazardous materials
awareness training, basic family preparedness strategies,
proper use of home and office fire extinguishers, search
and rescue, and more. Students also receive a CERT
participant’s training manual and a CERT backpack with
basic personal protective equipment including hard hat,
gloves, safety glasses, and a flashlight.
Students will be provided a light dinner at the Friday
evening session, and breakfast and lunch at the Saturday
session at no cost.
The Community Emergency Response Team (CERT)
Program educates people about disaster preparedness
for hazards that may impact their area and trains them
in basic disaster response skills such as fire safety, light
search and rescue, team organization and disaster medical
operations. Using the training learned in the classroom
and during exercises, CERT members can assist others
in their neighborhood or workplace when professional
responders are not immediately available to help. CERT
members also are encouraged to support emergency
response agencies by taking a more active role in
emergency preparedness projects in their community.
Pre-registration is required.
