I was so honored to present the “Mission Moment” at last nights Anixter board meeting. Emily Tate joined me to share the story of her son, Baxter. She spoke about how they learned of his hearing loss, how they found out about CHS, the impact of our Deaf Mentor services and IEP advocacy, and how well Baxter’s language development is coming along. CHS has the only Deaf Mentor program in Illinois and we currently have a waiting list. Help us continue to provide Deaf Mentors to families with Deaf, DeafBlind, and Hard of Hearing children.
