About

The RAD-ECDE grant was awarded to the University of Arizona Master’s in Deaf and Hard of Hearing program. The project was established in 2024 in order to focus on early intervention in Deaf Education. 

Early intervention is an area where RAD-ECDE scholars can make a tremendous difference by serving families with DHH children and by meeting their varied needs. To do so, the project identifies students in the Master’s program who intend to become early intervention teachers and specialists. Teacher candidates may be of diverse backgrounds or from underrepresented populations. 

To help foster the scholars for future success, the project will provide mentoring and numerous opportunities for professional growth as well as academic, career, and professional development resources.
