"This book will serve as an invaluable resource to those who serve or are planning on serving families who have young children who are deaf or hard of hearing. This book captures the essence of the principles and guidelines of early intervention for this population and takes a big picture view of good intervention, and then narrows it down for practical application for the individual provider serving an individual family and child. As a parent myself, I often refer
to my daughter's early intervention provider as 'Our Lifeline' in those early years. This book dissects in a thorough and research based manner exactly what that means. "
-Janet DesGeorges, Executive Director, Hands & Voices "Having embraced newborn screening for hearing sensitivity across the country and in many countries across the world, the promise of early identification of children who are deaf or hard of hearing is fulfilled only if access to language stimulation and timely and effective medical, audiological, and family-centered intervention services are provided. Marilyn Sass-Lehrer describes the principles which are the keys to fulfilling that promise. This new text covers
theoretical and practical information that will be valuable for a wide audience of readers. "
