What's H&V News? The Communicator

Welcome to communication central at Hands & Voices! Through our quarterly newspaper, The Communicator, Hands & Voices influences policy, creates parent advocates, and connects families and professionals to both the day to day experience of raising a deaf or hard of hearing child, and to our shared experiences no matter where any of us are throughout the world. We especially look for thought-provoking pieces that illustrate the strengths and needs of our current educational system, from birth to age 21.
