WHO WE ARE

VOICE for Hearing Impaired Children was established in the early '60s by parents to offer support to other families with children who are deaf and hard of hearing. These Toronto parents wanted their hearing impaired children to be educated alongside their hearing peers in regular schools. By working collectively they succeeded in achieving this goal and had the tremendous benefit of sharing information and providing support to one another.

Families continue to connect through the VOICE network. Our registered charity has thrived over the years and has developed into one of the largest parent support organizations for families of children with hearing loss. VOICE maintains approximately 1,000 members, in 17 chapters within Ontario, Alberta, Manitoba and Quebec.

The organization is governed by a Board of Directors composed of parents representing all chapters and friends of the organization. The central office is based in Toronto.  Join us and become part of the future for hearing impaired children and their families.
