May is Better Hearing and Speech Month!
By far, in my experience most of the children with whom I worked in Part C were referred because of a speech concern. Is this similar to what you are experiencing?
In celebration of Better Hearing and Speech Month, the Office of Head Start's Early Childhood Hearing Outreach (ECHO) Initiative is joining the the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA) to host a coffee break webinar series to celebrate this year’s theme “Communication for All.” Throughout the month of May, ASHA partners with national and local stakeholders to engage in a multifaceted public education campaign to raise awareness about the critical need to intervene early when young children are identified with communication disorders.
