This $3,158,761.00 federal Project Grant award was provided by the National Institute on Minority Health and Health Disparities (CFDA 93.307 - Minority Health and Health Disparities Research) to The Johns Hopkins University. The grant will fund the "Language is Medicine" intervention, which aims to prevent developmental delay in Navajo (Dine) toddlers through a caregiver-implemented language program delivered via tribal home visiting. The intervention combines cultural adaptations of two evidence-based language interventions - "It Takes Two to Talk" and "Enhanced Milieu Teaching" - to train tribal home visitors to coach primary caregivers on using responsive and reciprocal early communication and language acquisition strategies. The 4-year project, awarded on September 12, 2025, seeks to address the high rate of preventable developmental delay among Native American toddlers and preschoolers, which can impact kindergarten readiness and lead to the need for special education services.
