NEW STUDY: Gap Analysis in Support Services for Families of Deaf, Hard of Hearing Deaf/Blind and Deaf Plus Children in Washington State
The Missing Links to Parent Self-Efficacy, Involvement and Leadership
The Washington State Department of Health’s Early Hearing-Loss, Detection, Diagnosis and Intervention (EHDDI) Program contracted with Washington State Hands & Voices to conduct research related to supporting families with a child that is deaf, deaf-blind, or hard of hearing (D/DB/HH).
The purpose of this study is to understand the current issues and settings that families face to support their D/DB/HH child and gather future desired outcomes in order to recommend action steps in achieving such outcomes. As organizations work to support parents and their children, it is imperative to their child’s development that families remain engaged team members in order to support their children (AECF, p. 4). Therefore, it is within the context of parental self-efficacy that this study is focused in relation to the continuum of parent involvement and leadership.
