The 2018-2019 Impact Report tells the story of “23 Years of Smiles in the Neighborhood” at Child’s Voice. This document, available at childsvoice.org/impact-reports, describes the highlights of the school year, features stories from parents, organizations, and alumni, and is filled with photos depicting life at our School, Early Intervention, and Audiology programs.

“Life is brighter with Child’s Voice in it,” the mother of a current student says in the report. “This is where my son learns new words every day and puts them together to make sentences to express himself and share his feelings with his family.”

Child’s Voice, based in Wood Dale and Chicago, helps children with hearing loss learn to listen and to speak. Students wear hearing aids and/or cochlear implants and programs use a child-focused, research-based curriculum, all with the end goal of transitioning graduates back to their neighborhood schools. At its two locations in Wood Dale and the Roscoe Village neighborhood in Chicago, Child’s Voice serves nearly 400 children and their families each year.
