Intentional Time With Your Little One
“Our daughter, Grace, was born was right side microtia and atresia. And while she’s bright and motivated, she does have a unilateral hearing loss; which could mean a potential speech and language delay. Fortunately, her left ear has perfect hearing, but we’ve purchased a BAHA hearing aid and take her to speech and language therapy multiple times a month – just to give her every opportunity for success.”
How To Choose A Speech Language Pathologist
Choosing the sharpest speech language pathologist (SLP) for a child with hearing loss can be daunting. SLP and Listening and Spoken Language Therapy Specialist Elizabeth Rosenzweig shares some advice in this article “For Children With Hearing Loss, Not Just Any SLP Will Do.”
Doreen Pollack AVT Scholarship Winner Leslie Guzman Discusses the Joys of LSL
From a July 2023 Article in VoltaVoices by Kirsten Ballard:
Doreen Pollack was a trailblazer and fierce advocate for Listening and Spoken Language. Ahead of her time, she believed that learning to listen was the pathway to speech for children with hearing impairments. Pollack’s work, advocacy and legacy led to the standard of excellence in Listening and Spoken Language and her work inspired The Listen Foundation.
Her legacy lives on with the Listen Foundation’s Doreen Pollack AVT Scholarship, in association with AG Bell. The scholarship assists one LSLS professional per year in fulfilling the requirements for certification as a Listening and Spoken Language Specialist (LSLS®) in Auditory-Verbal Therapy (LSLS Cert. AVT®).
This year, it went to another fierce advocate for listening and spoken language, Leslie Guzman, SLP.
There have been many times when she has announced how thankful she is that she can hear and speak. She truly appreciates the gift.
