In early September Carol Samuels met with a number of members of Hard of Hearing Association – Saskatoon branch (HHA), to discuss some of these gaps. HHA – Saskatoon presented SDHHS with a proposal for an Outreach Coordinator position which would help to fill some of the gaps in service. The position would be provincial in focus and would assist people throughout the province to live well with their hearing loss.
SDHHS believes this proposal has great potential and in the coming months we will be asking HHA – Saskatoon and Canadian Hard of Hearing Association – Regina district and other interested parties to work collaboratively with us to develop the proposal further and search for funding for this position. SDHHS will keep members informed as we move forward.
DISC is joining a task team with government to work on the creation of this separate system. Over the next few months DISC will be working with government to develop the foundations of this system.
Canadian Hard of Hearing Association (CHHA) has some wonderful resources on advocating on your own behalf. SDHHS would like to invite members and interested individuals to a presentation on self-advocacy, based on the materials developed by CHHA.
Stay tuned for upcomming dates.
