The Michigan Department of Education - Low Incidence Outreach is hosting a statewide conference in November. See their original post below for more information and registration link within the text.

We recently talked with Dr. Christina Rivera about her upcoming keynote at our statewide deaf/hard of hearing (DHH) conference in November 🗨

In her presentation, Dr. Rivera will challenge participants to rethink how teacher consultants can take the lead in instruction and advocacy for students who are DHH. Learn more about her upcoming presentation: https://mdelio.org/news/2025-rdhh-statewide-conference-keynote-preview
