Tennessee Hands & Voices

TN Hands & Voices is one of over 44 statewide chapters comprised mainly of parents along with professionals. We are a parent-driven non-profit organization dedicated to supporting families of children who are deaf or hard of hearing. We are unbiased towards communication modes and methods and believe families can make the best choices for their child if they have access to good information and support.
Our diverse membership includes those who are deaf and hard of hearing and their families who communicate manually and/or orally. From American Sign Language to cochlear implants and everything in between, our organization represents people from all different approaches to, and experiences with, deafness or hearing loss. We exist to help our children reach their highest potential.
