Speaker: Pamela Mang, LMFT – She will tell her personal story, speak on coping with invisible and communication disability as well as hearing loss and mental health.
Pamela Mang became profoundly deaf 20 years ago resulting from illness during 
pregnancy. She has been involved in the Deaf Community for over 30 years. She earned a master’s degree in Marriage & Family Therapy at Hope International University, Fullerton, CA.
