  • Resumen

  • When a child is diagnosed as deaf or hard of hearing, families suddenly face an unexpected and often challenging situation. They have to start navigating a flood of information and start making crucial decisions about how they will be communicating with their child. Although these families often have access to qualified experts for guidance through this process, the support of primary care providers, child care providers, extended family, and friends is also vital. These supporters can be especially helpful to families if they have at least some understanding of the decisions the family is facing and the importance of the family being supported in making choices that seem to be best for their specific child and family at that time. In this episode of EarWorm, we'll explore the critical decisions these families face in the early stages and discuss how others can provide meaningful support. Amy Spencer is a speech-language pathologist and coordinator of early intervention and family services at the Maine Educational Center for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing. She is involved with the Maine Newborn Hearing Screening Advisory Board and the Maine Interagency Coordinating Council. Amy actively participates in Earliest Interactions Maine, a program supporting families from hearing screening to early intervention, funded by the Health Resource and Services Administration (HRSA). Her expertise in language and communication development was honed through Gallaudet University's Infant Toddler Family Leadership and Collaboration Certificate Program.
