Parents' group active


By KATE BLAIN- | Comments: 0 | Leave a comment

Parents of Deaf and Hearing Impaired Children is a very active parents' group begun by Sheila Shea and Lisa Mariconti, two parents who each have children who are deaf. The group publishes a quarterly newsletter, sent to a mailing list of about 150 people; hosts an email network; and sponsors educational programs and social events, including "silent dinners" where signing is the only form of communication allowed.

"I think the whole community benefits from what we do," Mrs. Shea stated. (KB)
