They bring lived experience, cultural knowledge, and insight that cannot be replicated from the outside. What they need isnโt approval, itโs space, trust, and amplification.
If weโre serious about progress, Deaf leadership must be central, not symbolic.

Long before โbest practiceโ became a buzzword, she understood that access to meaningful language was the foundation for all learning.
Today, this truth still guides effective Deaf Education. Whether in classrooms, therapy spaces, or homes, language access remains the cornerstone of student success.
Legacy isnโt about staying in the past.
Itโs about carrying forward what works.

This month's Literacy at Home episode, "๐๐๐๐ข๐๐๐ฅ ๐๐จ๐ฎ๐ญ๐ข๐ง๐๐ฌ: ๐๐๐๐ฅ ๐๐ข๐๐, ๐๐๐๐ฅ ๐๐๐ง๐ ๐ฎ๐๐ ๐, ๐๐ฅ๐ฅ ๐๐ฎ๐ฆ๐ฆ๐๐ซ," is a gentle reminder that language doesn't have to happen during structured lessons.
It happens while making snacks.
It happens during bedtime stories.
It happens while folding laundry.
It happens in the everyday moments we often overlook.
Whether your child communicates through spoken language, sign language, gestures, AAC, or a combination, those shared moments are helping build language, literacy, and connection.
