Camps and Accommodations for my DHH child

Have you made a request for accommodation at the community center for a swim class but the person at the desk told you that they do not provide accommodation? This session is for families who child is aging out of early intervention or families with school aged child, who want their DHH child to participate in various camps, community center programs, sports, public places like the zoo, and/or programs not affiliated with school. Learn about resources to request for accommodation and the next steps. Learn about resources such as your regional ADA resource centers, and where to file complaints. Let's make it better for our DHH community and future DHH kiddos. Also learn about various DHH camps across the country. Let's share resources with each other!
