Abstract
Literature concerning language acquisition in hearing children of deaf parents provides clinicians with a variety of case studies. Some of these studies found that language acquisition progressed in both sign language and spoken language without delay or disorder; others indicate concerns, especially in the development of spoken language. This case study describes an intervention program with a 20-month-old hearing child whose parents are deaf. The child was diagnosed as having a significant delay in both spoken and sign language. The home-based intervention program is described and the results are discussed, with implications for similar programming.
