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.
