As the holiday season settles in and the year begins to wind down, we’re excited to share the December edition of the Carter Hears! Exchange, a community-centered newsletter rooted in reflection, connection, and the quiet gifts that shape meaningful growth.
This month’s edition highlights how presence, preparation, and intentional support come together to create access, elevate language, and strengthen communication for Deaf and Hard of Hearing children and their families. Inside, you’ll find timely updates, practical resources, and inspiring stories that reflect the heart of our mission and the communities we serve.
Here’s a look at what you’ll find inside:
📰 Breaking News & Advocacy Updates – Important information about proposed federal changes impacting IDEA, along with family-friendly advocacy resources to help protect students’ educational rights.
📚 Professional Development Opportunities – Details on upcoming Educator Series workshops, the Spring 2026 EIPA Cohort, and new learning opportunities through Quill Model.
🌟 Spotlights & Celebrations – A community spotlight honoring the incredible work of Larrysa Martin, a birthday celebration for Olive Henry, and a joyful look at the people who make Carter Hears! special.
🎄 Holiday Inclusion Resources – Thoughtful tools and strategies to help families create inclusive, accessible holiday gatherings where every child feels seen and connected.
🌍 Community Events & Resources – Local events, seasonal activities, and trusted resources to keep families engaged and supported throughout the winter season.
As we close out the year, we invite you to pause and recognize the impact of showing up with heart and expertise. Every conversation, every moment of access, and every act of advocacy makes a difference: and together, those moments add up to meaningful change.
