Description
There is an increasing need
to provide evidenced-based recommendations regarding dual language learning in
children who are deaf and hard of hearing (DHH) with Autism Spectrum Disorder
(ASD). This presentation highlights current research in the field as well as
three case studies of DHH children with ASD from culturally and linguistically
diverse homes.
During this session
participants will:
- List red flags for a diagnosis of ASD in DHH children.
- Describe the impact of dual language learning in DHH children with ASD.
- Summarize recommendations for supporting the home language in children with a dual diagnosis of hearing loss and ASD.
