ASL can be handed down typically: Via Deaf families. New offspring are automatically taught ASL from birth and on..

Via Deaf programs - typically many teachers at Deaf schools can sign, and there are Deaf teachers who can sign ASL. Deaf friends at these programs also play a role in exposing other Deaf (who do not have Deaf families) to lots of signs.

Via Deaf schools - At Deaf schools where dormitories are present, many children learn ASL through friends at the Deaf schools. These kids were taught by their Deaf parents, Deaf siblings, etc. And other kids at the Deaf schools have learned via various methods as well, and when they arrive as a new student at the Deaf school, they also pick up the signs specific to that school and local area.
