Wisconsin Families for Hands & Voices is a nonprofit organization dedicated to the support of and advocacy for families who have children who are Deaf and Hard-of-Hearing.  Our sole purpose is to create a comprehensive system of parents and professionals who are committed to the unbiased support of families in order to provide Deaf and Hard-of-Hearing children with an education designed to support each child to reach their highest potential.

Please join us in supporting our mission.  Hands & Voices members enjoy a variety of benefits including:

  • Statewide and National Community Connections
  • Social Gatherings for Families
  • Advocacy Training and Outreach Programs
  • Quarterly Publications including Hands & Voices Communicator and The Wisconsin Communicator
  • Parent Perspective & Representation on Statewide/National Issues

Together we can continue to raise the standard for children who are Deaf and Hard-of-Hearing through communication access and helping them attain a quality of life we know they can achieve.  We look forward to welcoming you into the community of Hands & Voices.
