SUMMARY:Parent Support - Virtual Events - August 2026
DESCRIPTION:Download Image\n    \n\n\n\n\n\nParent Support – Virtual Event\n\n\n\nGlobal Inclusion: Allyship in Extended Family\, Friends\, and Community\n\n\n\nVirtual Event: \n\n\n\nEvery deaf and hard of hearing child deserves to grow up feeling seen\, valued\, and fully included. True inclusion extends beyond the classroom—it begins with families\, expands through friendships\, and flourishes within communities that embrace accessibility and belonging. \n\n\n\nThis interactive workshop explores how parents\, siblings\, extended family members\, educators\, peers\, and community leaders can become powerful allies in creating inclusive environments where deaf and hard of hearing children can thrive. \n\n\n\nKaren Putz is a mom of three deaf and hard of hearing kids who are now adults. She is the founder of The Parent Circle and the author of multiple books\, including “Success Wisdom by Deaf and Hard of Hearing People” available in English and Spanish. Karen founded the Illinois chapter of Hands & Voices and worked at headquarters for several years. Karen was born with hearing in the normal range\, grew up hard of hearing\, and became deaf from a fall while barefoot water skiing as a teen. \n\n\n\nRegistration is required: Click here to register \n\n\n\nor use the QR code: \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhen: Thursday\, August 20Time: 7:30 pm – 8:30 pmLocation: 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.
