Resource for Parents

Having a child diagnosed with hearing loss is difficult for any parents.  Where do you turn? What do you do next? Hopefully, you and your child feel comfortable the hands of the team of physicians and Audiologsts who will work together to treat your child's hearing loss.

We found a few websites that are designed to share with those parents who are just starting or even those that are well in to this journey.
