DESCRIPTION:Download Image\n    \n\n\n\n\n\nParent Support – Virtual Event\n\n\n\nRegister for Eyes Open\, Ears\n\n\n\nSupporting Technology Use in Young Children Who are Deaf or Hard of Hearing\n\n\n\nVirtual Event: \n\n\n\nThis parent/caregiver presentation will discuss the benefits of wear time for technology\, ideas for keeping devices securely on\, and how to maximize auditory access and incidental learning to promote access to listening and spoken language in day to day routines. Participants will learn the research behind thinking about hearing and listening as the “doorway to the brain”. In addition\, this presentation will explore resistance to hearing devices\, troubleshooting technology\, audiology support\, and considerations for children who may have concurrent conditions or diagnoses in addition to hearing loss. Participants will be able to see real-world examples and join in interactive discussions\, leaving them feeling empowered and knowledgeable to support their child in using their device to support overall language access and growth. \n\n\n\nMegan Myers is a Teacher of the Deaf and Listening and Spoken Language (LSL) Specialist and Kristin Bergholtz is a Speech-Language Pathologist. Both presenters have over 20 years of experience working with young children who are deaf/hard of hearing and their families to create their individualized journeys. Megan and Kristin have collaborated numerous times over the years to present on topics related to deafness in support of their local Western NY community. \n\n\n\nRegistration is required: Register link the virtual event \n\n\n\nor use the QR code: \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhen: Thursday\, May 28 Time: 6:00 pm – 7:30 pm ESTLocation: OnlineHave Questions?Contact Hands & Voices of NY:Email: handsandvoicesny@gmail.com \n\n\n\n\nWhat works for your child is what makes the choice right! \n\n\n\nWe support families of Deaf or Hard of Hearing children\, unbiased towards communication methods. We aim to provide resources for parents around all communication modes or methodologies. Our aim for our virtual events is to share a variety of perspectives and insights with parents on the many considerations that play into communication modes & methods.
