We also believe that language development, respect for the Deaf, and access to deaf and hard-of-hearing role models are important to assure optimal intellectual, social, and emotional development.

"Children are a gift and a blessing. Speak kindly, be respectful, be gentle, listen to them, talk to them, take them seriously, play with them, and see their behavior as a symptom of what is going on inside of them rather than just reacting to it. Be a proactive parent rather than a reactive one. They deserve nothing less."
