Regional Parent Guides

Regional Parent Guides were recruited and hired by MN Hands & Voices to serve as local contacts for families with children who are deaf and hard of hearing. The Parent Guides are parents of children with a variety of levels of hearing loss, diagnoses, ages, communication methods, etc. The State of Minnesota was divided into six regions, following the boundaries established by Deaf and Hard of Hearing Services' Regions. A Parent Guide was selected from each of these areas.
