Parent Relief

The goal of the Parent-Relief Program is to provide deaf children and adults who have special needs the opportunity to meet new friends and become involved in new activities in an ASL environment while offering their parents a break from the challenges of daily care. All staff members are either Deaf or communicate fluently in American Sign Language.
