Families

Families of deaf and hard of hearing students play a vital role in their child’s education and future life success, as they bridge the gap between what happens at school and what happens at home. As deaf and hard of hearing children grow from infancy to adulthood, their families are the constant; they are part of the full spectrum of growth. Families have insight and information to share that can benefit professionals and systems; their input helps others to understand and better support their deaf/hard of hearing child. The resources on this page are designed to provide families with quick and easy access to information and opportunities that can be helpful as they support their children in becoming confident, successful students and young adults.
