Program Description
Family Literacy Weekend is a fun, interactive weekend designed for families with Deaf, DeafBlind, and hard of hearing children ages 2–12. Throughout the weekend, families will participate in engaging literacy activities, explore children's books through American Sign Language (ASL), and learn strategies to support language development and early literacy at home. Families will also have the opportunity to connect with other families while learning from our Community Health & Literacy Program (CHLP) mentors.
