Support Groups for Parents

 

Regardless of which communication option is used, one of the things I find most parents are looking for is contact with other parents for support and information. I have set up this web page as a place where support groups for parents can have their web sites listed. Support Groups listed here support all communication options. Those that support only specific options, such as Cued Speech, Auditory-Verbal, Sign Language, Cochlear Implants or anything else specific can be found on the pages dealing with these topics.

CHILDD Advocacy 

Concerned Parents of the Deaf and Hard of Hearing

Deaf Education Advancement Foundation, Inc. - Harford County, Maryland

Hands & Voices

Parents of Hearing Impaired South Australia

Hearing Loss Association of America - While this group is mostly devoted to providing support for Adults, they are working on extending their organization to include Parents and Children.
