We believe
that, as parents, we hold the most important role in ensuring the well being and
development of our children. CHHA - B.C. Parents' Branch is a province wide
network of parents, families and friends of hard of hearing children.
We produce
informational newsletters for parents to share information regarding upcoming
events, technology, coping strategies, advocacy, resources, etc. Our newsletter is free to all families of
hard of hearing children in British Columbia.

As parents
we form the vital link between health and education service providers, our children
and the community. Together we work
towards:
- Early diagnosis and intervention
- Effective communication
- Family support
- Accessing and expanding services
- Defining needs and concerns
- Public awareness
- Teaching our children to advocate for themselves
& others
- Giving our children the tools to be independent,
confident individuals with a sense of belonging
As parents we can serve as a valuable source of
support and information for each other. We connect families to other families.
