Heather Jacobs

Heather Jacobs is a minor character in Laurie's Liberation. An elementary school student in Stallbrook, she is deaf and her mother (now divorced from her deaf father) does not want Heather using sign language in school. This puts Heather's teacher Bianca Jimenez in a bind, and only serves to isolate Heather. When Heather's class is brought to the public library, Laurie Franklin engages in conversation with her in sign language, and teaches her classmates some signs before providing Bianca with a contact at the Lyons School for more resources.
