These websites may be useful for any Deaf or HOH individuals with ASL:

ASL Disability Law Lowdown
Check out this great website, it covers all ranges of disability issues and allows you to print out the transcript of an episode and/or watch it via podcast or youtube. (The podcast takes about 12-15 minutes to download, but youtube version was easier and just as good in quality. The ASL interpreter does not seem to go too fast either, which may be beneficial for the older Deaf population with vision impairments as well.
Federal Communications Commission
