raised by 36 people
When parents learn their child is deaf or hard of hearing they often are overwhelmed with questions and welcome every opportunity to talk with someone who has walked a similar path. Through Minnesota Hands & Voices, families feel less isolated and better informed to make crucial decisions.
Here's what Minnesota Hands & Voices parent, Katty, has to say:
"It's comforting knowing that there is help for her and that she's not alone, and we're not alone. There are people out there that can help us, and they can help her for a better education and a better life. Sometimes as parents we need advice, and we have a lot of questions that we can't just ask Google."
Our staff are themselves parents of diverse and wonderful children who are deaf and hard of hearing. Together, we share the same emotions, decisions, and questions as the families we serve across the state. And, we know this – there are no limits to a child’s potential.
Generous support from donors help families every day. A program of Lifetrack, Minnesota Hands & Voices has been connecting families of children who are deaf and hard of hearing since 2000.
“I think back to those early months after the identification of hearing loss and not knowing what that meant for raising a daughter or for her older sister. Within a short time of connecting to Minnesota Hands & Voices at Lifetrack, their resources, and other families, we quickly saw that this is our family and we felt supported. Not just hope, but confidence,” – Kyle, MNH&V parent
