Parent Advising
Our parent advising provides coordination of audiological, developmental, and educational management for families of children who are deaf and hard of hearing. We provide guidance and coaching to parents and caregivers at any point on their hearing loss journey, from diagnosis to mainstream education and independence.
Parent advising promotes the child’s development of cognitive, auditory, and language skills through everyday routines and play. The listening and spoken language approach is fundamentally collaborative, and the family is the core of that collaboration.
Learn to LSL
Families can gather to learn auditory verbal therapy-based strategies in a weekly group setting led by our LSL/Auditory Verbal Therapy specialists. Through modeling and coaching in a play-based setting, parents and caregivers gain confidence as primary language facilitators. L2LSL provides evidence-based educational strategies to support optimal listening/spoken language and literacy development along with early intervention. Families can connect with and empower each other along their listening and spoken language journey.
