Caregiver/Parent Education: Building Social Skills with Eryn McHan
2024-01-16 19:30 - 20:30 (America/Los_Angeles)
This month we’ll learn about building social skills. Weingarten Children’s Center is dedicated to supporting and empowering families on their child’s listening and spoken language development journey, as we know that caregivers are their child’s primary and best teacher. Through the Parent Education Community, we offer opportunities for families to learn together through bi-monthly live virtual learning sessions on topics related to the care, development, and education of children with hearing loss. Parent Education learning sessions are led by Listening and Spoken Language experts, including Speech-Language Pathologists/Auditory-Verbal Therapists, Teachers of the Deaf, and Audiologists.

Join us for a special evening to hear from several of Weingarten Children’s Center’s alumni students. They will share their experiences and answer your questions, such as “What do you wish people knew about your hearing loss,” “What challenges do you experience at school or with your friends and how do you overcome these challenges,” and “What are your goals for your future?” This webinar is intended for anyone who is curious about where our alumni students are today and what can be possible for children with hearing loss who had an early foundation in Listening and Spoken Language intervention and education. This session will be in a webinar format. Attendees can type their questions to the panelists in the Zoom chat box.
