ACI Alliance submitted comments on the recent HRSA call for information on future program development of Early Hearing Detection and Intervention (EHDI) Program. We are longtime supporters of EHDI as it is one of the most crucial programs for identifying and supporting children who are deaf or hard of hearing and their families. Our comments address the need for additional support from HRSA to EHDI programs for distribution of accurate, unbiased information to parents; improving family to family support, and engagement of medically underserved communities.
The mission of the American Cochlear Implant (ACI) Alliance is to advance access to the gift of hearing provided by cochlear implantation through research, advocacy and awareness.
