@jjhorgan @KatrineConroy @KatrinaCBurnaby While we appreciate the increased focus on Child Care in BC, sadly @jjhorgan these numbers don't speak to the devastating fate of Preschool & CC programs for Deaf children in BC. New spaces and parent saving $$ does not equate to access! #DCSlanguageforlife#myDCSmyASL#deaf#asl
DCS is now offering Speech & Language Therapy to ALL children birth to 18. Check out our poster for details and email office@deafchildren to register !
As of April 1, 2020 the Ministry of Child and
Family Development has eliminated all targeted funding for our preschool. As a result, DCS is facing the most significant funding shortages of all time. We are deeply concerned for our families and for our children. A thread.
May is "Language & Communication Month" ! Why not learn a new language with DCS -new ASL classes for children and adults start every few months. Check out this class starting next week for kids !
