Essential Programs to Coach and Empower

Essential Programs to Coach and Empower addresses an urgent need to unleash caregiver’s innate strengths and capacity to thrive. We want them to embrace their journeys and raise healthy, happy children. Based on years of international aural education training, positive psychology, parent supports in low resource communities, we offer unique ways to inform and prepare caregivers.

Helping a child learn and communicate at home, becoming informed in hearing health practices, breaking stigma, and working in communities and schools to promote inclusive communication and learning, Essential Programs to Coach and Empower engages caregivers in activities that embrace challenge with positivity: hope in despair, joy in a difficult journey, acceptance of their child regardless of community stigma. Specially designed programs engage caregivers through five domains of well-being. Practical and interactive workshops foster parent potential and build capacity in distinct ways.

Joanne Travers, founder and director of PGV, collaborates with service providers, universities, schools, parent organizations, family-centered practices, and community-based organizations serving caregivers of children with hearing loss. She works collaboratively to coordinate meaningful training and interactive workshops that meet unique needs. Full and half day sessions are available to both practitioners as well as with families of children with hearing loss.  Contact us to inquire.
