Our Story: Imagine you are a new parent. Your baby, one
of the 97% of newborns screened in Arizona for hearing loss, has
been diagnosed deaf or hard of hearing. You have found
Desert Voices in Phoenix where even infants and their family can
begin to gain the skills needed to use spoken language.
Mission Statement: Desert Voices' missionis to teach each
child, who are deaf or hard of hearing, the oral language skills
needed to talk and understand when spoken to. Our goal is to
prepare the children and their family to mainstream into their
school of choice with hearing children their age.
Organization History: Desert Voices was founded in 1996 by
parents of children with hearing loss who believed spoken language
instruction provided their children with the greatest educational
and social opportunities. Desert Voices opened their doors
using a structured, language focused teaching curriculum with
one teacher for every two to three students. Today Desert
Voices serves families with infants to children age 5 or 6.
Our professionals collaborate with pediatricians, audiologists,
school districts, and state referral agencies in order to identify
these children and facilitate their enrollment in an appropriate
program.
