31700 Honduras Sign Language "According to Dr. Jay Soper’s deaf population estimate (2008), Honduras may have had approximately 18 thousand deaf people in 2000. His estimate is based on a country’s gross domestic product to reflect the possible influence of health care access of each country. According to Logos International, a deaf ministry in Honduras, the deaf population estimate is 70 thousand. Other local workers state that there is an estimate of 100 deaf people in Choluteca and 200 deaf people in El Progreso. There are no estimates for other cities."
