About this Organization

We believe parents are the first advocates for their child, and to advocate for their child, they need access to information and resources so they can make informed decisions for their child. A child who is deaf or hard of hearing is like a flower, and to bloom, they need a gardener who can provide water, fertilizer, and sunlight, or in this case, access, resources, and a language-rich environment. Our goal is to equip parents to be the best gardeners for their own gardens. We work with parents of children who are deaf or hard of hearing, Deaf and hard of hearing parents, and the professionals that work with these families, all across South Carolina. These services involve 3 main types: direct to parent services, parent services in coordination with childcare centers, and direct to childcare center services supporting future parents of children with unidentified hearing loss.
