This number refers only to the adults who use JCS. While some sources list 2,500, that number refers to the number of deaf children in Jamaica, as opposed to the number of people who actually use JCS. Most children use both JCS and Jamaican Sign Language (which is 75%% ASL). Some also use Signed English.
"Country Sign users have taught their sign language to the next generation for years (Loupe 2009) but the recent establishment of Maranatha School for the Deaf in the area, which uses JSL, has led to a diminishing use of Country Sign among the younger generation (Wilson 2005)."
