How We Make An Impact
Expanding Access & Inclusion
for All Learners.
FHSR is working to make sure no deaf or hard of hearing child in Illinois is without the tools they need to succeed in school. To achieve that goal, the FHSR Education Coordinator offers a unique, personalized resource to help deaf and hard of hearing (DHH) students thrive in the classroom and beyond. The Education Coordinator partners with families living with pediatric hearing loss and the educators who serve them.
Read more about how the FHSR Education Coordinator helps students and educators – and how you can support the children and families who need these crucial services.

Save the Date to Walk with Us!
June 7, 2026
Every year, FHSR teams up with the Evangelides family and Mal's Pal's to walk for Lurie Children's and raise funds for the Lurie Pediatric Audiology clinic. In addition to raising much-needed support, it's a great family day out, with activities and fun for all ages.
Walk with us on June 7, 2026.
Funds raised on the Walk benefit pediatric audiology programs at Lurie's, including the Hart Family Clinical Education Coordinator and music therapy in the cochlear implant clinic of Dr. Nancy Young.
