SUMMARY:H&V/FL3 Leadership Webinar: Brave Conversations: Turning Conflict into Connection
DESCRIPTION:04/23/26\n11:00am MDT – 12:00pm MDT \nLeaders who support families with Deaf and Hard of Hearing\n(DHH) children often find themselves balancing mission-driven passion with\ncomplex interpersonal dynamics. Whether navigating difficult conversations with\nboard members or staff\, addressing tensions with partner organizations\, or\nmanaging challenges within volunteer-driven environments\, these moments can\nfeel high-stakes—and deeply personal. \nThis webinar is designed for professionals and parent\nleaders working across agencies\, educational systems\, and nonprofits who want\nto approach these situations with greater clarity\, confidence\, and intention.\nParticipants will explore practical strategies for leading courageous\nconversations\, setting and maintaining healthy boundaries\, and responding to\nconflict in ways that preserve relationships while staying grounded in\norganizational values and family-centered practices. \nGrounded in the unique context of DHH family support\, this\nsession emphasizes relationship-centered leadership and actionable tools\nparticipants can immediately apply in their work. Attendees will leave with\nrenewed confidence and a practical framework for turning challenging\nconversations into opportunities for growth\, alignment\, and stronger\ncollaboration. \nRegister https://handsandvoices.org/registrations/l2l-fl3/

SUMMARY:Fostering Joy Forum Presents - Rooted in Joy: Identity\, Access\, and Belonging
DESCRIPTION:04/21/26\n1:00pm – 2:00pm (MT) \nWhat does joy look like in the Deaf and Hard of Hearing (D/HH) experience? Too often\, conversations focus on challenges\, barriers\, or systems. This forum shifts the\nlens. Together\, we will explore the power of joy as told through lived\nexperience—by individuals who are D/HH. Hosted by Hands & Voices\, this conversation celebrates\nidentity\, connection\, growth\, and belonging. Through personal stories and\nshared reflections\, this session will highlight everyday moments that make the\nD/HH journey meaningful and vibrant. Whether you are a chapter leader\, family\nmember\, professional\, or community partner\, you are invited to listen\, learn\,\nand reflect on how we can intentionally foster joy—in our programs\, in our\nleadership\, and in our relationships… Because joy is not an\nafterthought. It’s foundational. \nRegister here https://handsandvoices.org/registrations/fostering-joy-reg.html
