• 5 min evaluation/posttest
 
About this online Learning Community event:
It takes time to process your own reaction, learn about audiology, and get answers to the
many questions that you are suddenly confronted with after a diagnosis, whether recently
or years ago. We all want the best for our children! Becoming empowered advocates is
a great gift we can give to them- and to ourselves. Dr. Saperstein’s “F-I-G method” is a
framework that can be applied to advocating for your child in many different situations.
