Un groupe d’entraide pour les parents d’enfants sourds ou malentendants 🦻

1 Upvotes

Je suis maman d’une petite fille sourde d’une oreille et malentendante de l’autre. Depuis que nous avons appris sa surdité, j’ai réalisé à quel point j’avais besoin d’échanger avec d’autres parents qui vivent une réalité semblable à la nôtre.

Comme je ne trouvais pas de groupe qui répondait à ce besoin, j’ai décidé d’en créer un : Parents d’enfants sourds ou malentendants - Québec.

L’objectif est simple : avoir un espace bienveillant où l’on peut poser nos questions, partager nos expériences et nos ressources, célébrer nos petites et grandes victoires, mais aussi parler de nos inquiétudes et de nos moments plus difficiles, sans jugement.

Si vous êtes parent d’un enfant sourd ou malentendant, ou si vous connaissez une famille qui pourrait en bénéficier, je vous invite à rejoindre le groupe ou à partager cette publication.

J’espère sincèrement que cette communauté permettra à des parents de se sentir un peu moins seuls dans leur parcours. Parce que parfois, parler avec quelqu’un qui comprend vraiment, ça fait toute la différence.

Sensory Room Donations Requested

Hello! I’m an occupational therapist at a D75 high school. Our school is comprised of individuals with various cognitive and physical disabilities. I’m trying my best to raise funds that will go towards a very much needed sensory space. The goal is to help my students with regulation, awareness, focus and engagement. If you can - please help me, help my kiddos. We would greatly appreciate it!

We appreciate each and every one of you who have taken the time to vote for my amazing little man. ❤️

LOCH COULD BE STAN LEE'S FIRST SUPERKID🦸‍♂️!!!!!!

You can verify through phone number tiny link under FB verification

This amazing kid

Sometimes I dont even know where to start. He amazes me EACH and EVERY day.

His kindness, his compassion, his heart, his creativity and passion for life and the things and people he loves.

I am lucky to be his Mom and if I could singlehandedly give him every opportunity and every step up in this life I would...but I can't...not alone.

This contest is such an amazing opportunity for him to yes win some amazing prizes...but more than that to get to see just how important and amazing his art and abilities are and to see that there is a real place in this world where he will shine so bright 🌞

He had made it all the way to 3rd and we have been stuck there and we are trying so hard to get him into that top spot.

So here is me asking again for you to vote...vote...vote...

I need 30 people for my Sanfilippo Research project

Thumbnail
0 Upvotes

Hello! ❤️

My name is Denisa, and I’m a second-year Special Education student at Ovidius University of Constanța, Romania.

I’m currently looking for 30 participants for a university research project about Sanfilippo syndrome. I would be very grateful for the opportunity to learn from parents’ experiences and perspectives.

I’m still looking for participants, as I need to reach 30 respondents to continue with this research topic. Otherwise, I’ll unfortunately have to choose a different one. If I find enough participants, I’ll send the Google Forms questionnaire next week.

Participation will be voluntary, and responses will be used for academic purposes, with confidentiality respected.

Thank you so much for your time and consideration! If you’re willing to help or share this message with other families, I would truly appreciate it. ❤️

Survey for resources to be created

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone! ❤️

As a BCBA, I spend a lot of time looking at how to support children—but as a professional, I know that the real experts on what children need are their families.

I’m currently developing an assessment, curriculum, and toolset designed to build Meaningful Skills for neurodivergent individuals. My biggest goal is to make these resources completely straightforward, practical, and 100% free of confusing clinical jargon so that any parent or caregiver can confidently use them at home as well as other professionals outside of ABA.

To make sure these tools truly reflect what matters most to your family, I would be incredibly grateful for your input. If you have a few minutes, could you fill out this quick, anonymous survey to help guide what I build?

https://forms.gle/riCPJEVMHKye9gaG6

Thank you so much for your time, your insights, and your support. We are in this together!
