Please join Vermont Hands & Voices for a fall gathering at the Maple Street Park (75 Maple St) in Essex Junction on Sunday, September 13, 2025 from 2-4:30 pm. Enjoy the park and playground with other families who have D/deaf or hard of hearing kids. Your child will have opportunities to spend time with others who are DHH of varying ages. D/deaf and hard of hearing adults and professionals in the field are encouraged to come with their families as well!

You can come for some, or all of the time--we're joining together for fun and connection. Please join us to say goodbye to Summer, hello to Autumn, and a hearty happy start to those who have started daycare/preschool/school/homeschool/early intervention!

We will have a pavilion to sit and snack under (the medium-sized one, between the swings and baseball area). We’ll have some outdoor games and snacks, but please bring your favorites to share!

Please fill out the RSVP form at https://tinyurl.com/vthvfall2026 so we may plan for your attendance. Questions? Email us at [email protected]

Introduction to HOPE – Healthy Outcomes from Positive Experiences *A virtual workshop with OUT Maine

🗓️ Thursday, September 10, from 10:00–11:30am

💡 In this session, attendees will learn about the four building blocks of HOPE: Relationships, Environments, Engagement, and Emotional Growth. Attendees will also learn about adverse childhood experiences and positive childhood experiences, and will explore their relationships to health outcomes for youth into adulthood. HOPE provides a guide for the “now what” response to adverse childhood experiences, which helps organizational staff determine what action steps they can take to support positive childhood experiences in youth and help build resilience for the future.

This webinar is part of a 4-part series hosted by OUT Maine and The Onion Foundation.
