EHDI FAMILY LEADERSHIP AWARD
Irma Sanchez
Irma has been and continues to be, a fantastic role model to Deaf Latinx Mothers throughout California, a state where majority of the referrals are babies who have Spanish speaking families. She is the lead parent to parent mentor for LEAD-K Family Services for families who speak both English and Spanish. Her firsthand knowledge as a parent with 3 deaf sons, speaks volumes of the struggles and victories she can share with other families going through the same experiences. Irma's calm demeanor and friendly personality engages Spanish-speaking families from all over the nation.
