Triad's Goals for Deaf Kids & Adults
- Become Champions and to advocate for the legal rights of Deaf Children. To inspire the Deaf to become advocates not only for themselves but for others like them. To achieve development milestones.
- Goal is to help Deaf children and adults to overcome any communication barrier. To enhance their self-esteem and allow them to dream and achieve.
Worry, sadness, fear, helplessness, anger, confusion and disappointment leading to more worry, all these are issues where comprehension in a hearing world set upon to a Deaf child or adult. - Raising a child with special needs or assisting them and Deaf adults "up the ante". Meeting the complex needs of comprehension in today's world can be extraordinarily difficult without the added emotion of not hearing the environment you live in. Leading to the question- Do the Deaf have a real opportunity to lead a fulfilling independent, and productive life?
- To help Deaf children and adults in Stark, Tuscarawas and Carroll Counties find their voice.
To be able to successfully interact with other children or adults with their limited vocabulary and English language/grammar. Many in the hearing world are surprised that English is not the first language of the DEAF! American Sign Language (ASL) is their language, and while using English words for context the sentence structure is very different.
Many Deaf do not associate for fear of embarrassment: because they are not like the rest of the hearing and communicating world. Deafness is the "invisible disability". Children who are born deaf are unable to learn English communication unless some method is used to enable them to comprehend English and the hearing world about them. Only in the past 20-30 years has a real effort been made to develop methods of teaching and learning. This has developed in even a change health and spirit reinforcing they would have no handicap in life and learn to adapt to a life which is conductive to the development of that spirit.
