You are not alone in this journey. We know it may feel that way, we remember that feeling as if it were yesterday. But there is a whole group of us, with lived experiences, to help guide you. For more support, please email us at GBYS@co-hv.org to be connected with a Parent Guide.
To continue getting parent stories, professional insight, and D/HH individual perspective to help guide you, please sign up for the Hands & Voices quarterly newspaper, The Communicator.
“I just received the Hands & Voices newspaper. The new issue always seems to come just when I am struggling, and it always gives me the strength to do more.” Heather Huffaker, mom to a child with later-onset hearing differences.
