Network
Gloria is sometimes invited to give advice and training on the care,
education and behaviour management of children with special needs,
whether those children be with their own family, at a day centre
or in an institution. This can take various forms: home visits, long
distance exchange of information by letter, fax or e-mail, question
and answer sessions, discussions,a series of seminars or a course.

Gloria is invited to meet parents and children at the "Trebuie!" Day

years previously that her baby had no hearing, was shown that he
did have hearing and that a special learning programme was needed.
