JTC Baby Sound Check® Program Nominated for National Award
Baby Sound Check® has been nominated for the 2010 Antonia Brancia Maxon Award for EHDI (Early Hearing Detection and Intervention) Excellence, to be presented at the 2010 National EHDI Conference in Chicago, Illinois. The nomination was announced in February by Dr. Karl White, Director of the National Center for Hearing Assessment and Management (NCHAM).
The Antonia Brancia Maxon Award for EHDI Excellence honors the work of Dr. Antonia Brancia Maxon, who was a pioneer in EHDI programs. She was a tireless advocate for connecting screening programs with timely and appropriate diagnosis and early intervention, and promoted effective EHDI programs for all newborns, infants, and young children. The award is presented each year at the National EHDI Conference to honor an individual or group of people who have made noteworthy accomplishments in EHDI programs nationally or in a particular state or region. Baby Sound Check® is among a very distinguished group of people nominated for this award.
