This Project Grant award of $435,875.00, provided by the Department of Health and Human Services National Institutes of Health (NIH) under the Trans-NIH Research Support program (CFDA 93.310), supports research to determine what information and resources parents and professionals in Pennsylvania need to support language acquisition in deaf and hard-of-hearing (DHH) children. The research team at Temple University will first gather input from inexperienced parents and professionals currently supporting DHH children's language development to understand their information needs. They will also consult with expert stakeholders across Pennsylvania to identify the most relevant and important information that should be provided to families. With this input, the team will create a comprehensive resource to give parents and professionals the knowledge and guidance needed to make informed decisions that support optimal language outcomes for DHH children. The project period runs from September 3, 2025 to August 31, 2027.
