St. Joseph Institute for the Deaf

http://www.sjid.org

St. Joseph Institute for the Deaf-Kansas City (SJI-KC) opened in 1995 to serve children with hearing loss from all socio-economic and ethnic backgrounds in the greater Kansas City area. We serve children birth through age ten, with a mild to profound hearing loss. SJI-KC is an auditory-oral school. In our school, children with all degrees of hearing loss make maximum use of their residual hearing with necessary amplification to facilitate language and speech development. The goal of the auditory-oral approach is to give deaf children the necessary spoken language skills to be educationally mainstreamed and to function independently in the hearing world. We are the only exclusively auditory-oral school in the greater Kansas City area and serve children in both Kansas and Missouri.

Omaha Hearing School for Children

Our mission is to serve children who are deaf or hard-of-hearing, their families and the community by providing auditory oral education. Auditory oral education teaches children to listen and talk, so as they grow, choices will be available to them in our talking and hearing world.
