Raising a Deaf Child

WillieRoss > Parents > Raising a Deaf Child

Whether you’re a parent, guardian, relative or teacher, you’re bound to have questions about how to raise and educate your deaf or hard-of-hearing child. Over the years, we’ve found Raising and Educating a Deaf Child to be an invaluable resource.

Hosted by the Rochester Institute of Technology’s National Technical Institute for the Deaf, Raising and Educating a Deaf Child is a moderated site where “International experts answer your questions about the choices, controversies, and decisions faced by parents and educators of deaf and hard-of-hearing children.”

In addition to the information we gather from this site, our own professional development and analysis of the latest research findings informs how we evolve our teaching approaches to educate your child.
