Guidelines for the Assessment and Educational Evaluation of Deaf and Hard of Hearing Children in Indiana

Recently revised edition now available

The Assessment Team at the Center works with all children who are Deaf or Hard of Hearing no matter how unique of a profile they may have either medically or educationally. There is a shortage of professionals who have experience working with deaf and hard of hearing individuals, which can lead to possible misidentification or dismissal of other challenges. This makes the expertise of the Center for Deaf and Hard of Hearing Education Assessment Team so critical in determining any additional variables that impact a student’s progress.

The Center is available to assist schools with in-services, consultation, observations, and assessment at no cost to schools or families. We believe in a whole child approach, including partnering with schools and families to help students meet their optimum potential.

The Guidelines for the Assessment and Educational Evaluation of Deaf and Hard of Hearing Children in Indiana were created as a resource to share our expertise with those who work with and care for Deaf and Hard of Hearing children. Additionally, you an access this resource on our website.
