This year FEHI is proud to present its Honors of the Association Award to Kids Together Development Center in Oviedo. Three years ago a four-month old deaf child was enrolled at Kids Together. From the beginning Kids Together rose to the challenge and has worked closely with the little girl’s family to meet her educational and developmental needs. They have worked to educate their staff as to the needs of a deaf or hard of hearing child. They have participated in her Individual Family Service plan meetings, as well as her IEP transition staffing meeting with Orange County Public Schools. They have welcomed the child’s speech therapist and itinerant teacher to work with her onsite. As an organization Kids Together has exemplified an impressive commitment to this young deaf child and future students who are deaf or hard of hearing.
