Communication is limited to home-made gestures.  Parents are often misinformed about deafness. Without meaningful communication, Deaf children become frustrated and angry.  Families rarely have access to sign language.  The gift of a Deaf Community Worker provides families with an educated Deaf role-model who visit the homes of Deaf children. They help the family understand deafness, teach sign language and counsel the Deaf child.  \u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eThe Gift\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eYour gift of $50 provides three months’ full support to Deaf Community Workers (DCW).   The DCWs are provided from this gift a small stipend, travel allowances and materials to share with families.  This could also include a sign language picture vocabulary book to facilitate communication within the family (see gift #8).  The DCW will often travel with a hearing teacher of the Deaf who can interpret to the family.  The DCW works with the child to improve confidence and communication skills.  \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Global Deaf Connection","offers":[{"title":"3 months of support \/ https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1842\/4701\/files\/nonprofit_logo_00197_00134.jpg","offer_id":31059442729042,"sku":"","price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/1705\/2242\/products\/image3_final.jpg?v=1572362066","url":"https:\/\/sandbox-sicong-wang.myshopify.com\/products\/global-deaf-connection-help-deaf-families-2","provider":"Sandbox - Sicong Wang","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
