Happy Holidays from CCHAT!

‍

We are grateful for our generous donors who help amplify the success of each child we serve.

We anticipate that 2023 will be another amazing year of growth for CCHAT students who are deaf and hard of hearing. This holiday season, please support us as we continue to empower our children with the skills they need to thrive - now, tomorrow and always.

With gratitude,

The CCHAT Center
