| Abstract: | Based on demographic data from more than 400 families, this report describes the growth and development of early intervention services at the Maryland School for the Deaf from 1969 to 1992. The implications of this information are discussed as they relate to the very early identification of hard-of-hearing and deaf youngsters, to the impact of changing etiologies, and to the training of early intervention specialists who can meet the needs of these children and their families. |
