ADVANTAGES OF HOME VISITS
Home visits make it possible to
reach isolated families
Ideal for learning firsthand about
the conditions the family faces day
after day
Learn about family structure, roles,
and interrelationships
Family is on their turf, not a
strange place
Family doesn‟t have to dress up,
get organized, drive to get to the
appointment (especially if no
transporation)
The child is more comfortable in
his or her own setting

PHILOSOPHY OF EARLY
INTERVENTION
• Begins as close to birth as possible
• Is family-centered (not just child-centered)
• Takes place in the child‟s natural environment
• Shares needed information with the family (unbiased)
• Results in a partnership between Parent Advisor and family
• Guided by ‘Informed Choice’
• Believes that Communication and language (in whatever mode is most appropriate for the child and family) are the heart of the program

Family Outcomes
Hi Hopes has been the most incredible part of our Journey with Teghan's
Deafness. Networking with other deaf people, Meeting parents in the same ,
Invaluable sounding board for all those frustrating moments, Continual
Information and advice on how to do anything and everything for my little man.
Interaction with all the support team that I have ENT, Audiologists, Speech
Therapists, OT's, Nursery School…
These are just some of the benefits that we have received from your support. I
shudder to think how we would have managed with out this support and pray
that these services will continue for as long as we need it. Your energy,
dedication, warmth and commitment is inspiring.
Thank you for everything
