With the right technology, early intervention, and loving instruction, deaf and hard-of-hearing children can achieve what once seemed impossible—they can learn to listen and speak.
Spokane HOPE is the only program in eastern Washington offering this vital teaching from birth through preschool, ensuring children have the opportunity to thrive during their most critical developmental years. By gaining the ability to hear and speak, our students are empowered to chase their dreams and make a meaningful impact on the world around them.
This is the miracle of HOPE.
With help from speech therapists, audiologists, teachers, and her loving family, Charlotte has transformed from squeals and gestures to full conversations and friendships.
Without Spokane HOPE, children like Charlotte wouldn’t get the specialized services they need to thrive.
What an incredible year it has been, full of momentum, growth, connection, and most of all, HOPE!
Every day, we’re reminded of how fortunate we are to serve such extraordinary families and to be supported by a community that truly believes in the potential of children who are deaf and hard of hearing to listen and talk.

“My husband and I were devastated when we received the news that our youngest son, Sonny, had hearing loss. I spent weeks intermittently crying over the news. After a couple of days of digesting, I took my audiologist’s advice and reached out to Spokane HOPE. I sobbed tears of relief and joy as I saw the stories on their website told by other parents. I had found a community that would enable my son to live his best life.
“I am beyond grateful to have found HOPE and have been touched and impressed by the therapists who are so clearly passionate and knowledgeable in their skills. I now know that Sonny is in good hands and thriving because of HOPE.
