Parent Workshop | Demystifying Devices and Oral Language

  • Language First 49 Tolland Turnpike Manchester, CT, 06042 United States (map)

Cochlear implants and hearing aids are valuable tools, but they are not a guarantee of full language access for Deaf and hard of hearing (DHH) children. In this workshop, we’ll break down the basics of how these technologies work, their potential benefits, and their limitations. We’ll explore the factors that influence outcomes, such as age of implantation, consistent use, environment, and the presence of a fully accessible language. Parents will gain a clearer understanding of why technology should be paired with strong language strategies, how to set realistic expectations, and how to ensure that their child’s language development is supported in all settings.
