The Silent Garden
Advisory Committee
The Silent Garden’s advisory committee exists to help The Silent Garden tap into existing community resources and use their networks and relationships in the entire United States to grow The Silent Garden at Fresno State. Meeting annually, committee members bring to the meeting their expertise and knowledge through their extensive networking and professional relationships regarding families, teachers, interpreters, professionals and college/university students needs so they can work successfully with the Deaf and hard of hearing community. Each member of the committee is a valued ambassador for The Silent Garden in our community.
