The resource services at the Manitoba School for the Deaf (MSD) are housed within the school, ensuring accessible and coordinated support for students, families, and staff. Our resource staff include a speech-language pathologist, family liaison worker, audiologist, physical and occupational therapists and educational supervisor. The team also connects with a range of external agencies to support student and family needs.
In addition to supporting students enrolled at MSD, the resource staff work collaboratively with families and staff to promote student well-being, communication development, and academic success.
