Help is on the way!  Next month, a new group will be forming here at Nativity.  The tentative name is Sound Connections.  The permanent name will be decided by the group, once we’re up and running.  Sound Connections has been chosen at this point to stress the difference between “late-deafened” and “culturally deaf” persons.  The emphasis will be on the sounds we hear, and have heard from birth, as opposed to the absence of sound in the life of one who was born deaf.  The connection part will be the basis of the group, presenting opportunities to connect with others who share your challenges.

At the first meeting, we’ll decide how often we want to meet … once a month; once a month for a presentation on new technology, treatment or coping strategies and also once a month for a social event … more often … less often.  At some point we may discuss the option of affiliating with a national group, such as the Hearing Loss Association of America.   The group will take the shape its members choose.
