North Dakota Early Hearing Detection and Intervention Program (ND EHDI)

North Dakota Early Hearing Detection and Intervention Program (ND EHDI) Welcome to the North Dakota Early Hearing Detection and Intervention (ND EHDI) program page! Our goal is to focus on all aspects of hearing health.

The ND EHDI program has been in operation since 2000. At that time, there was an increased emphasis placed on universal newborn hearing screening (UNHS). As programs evolved from UNHS into EHDI, an additional emphasis was placed on follow-up efforts thus requiring support for both birth screening and subsequent follow-up activities. This additional focus to reduce loss to documentation/loss to follow-up (LTD/LTF) has brought about the need to enlist additional program partners including audiologists, child health care providers, and early childhood programs while maintaining a strong birth screening program. Following an infant from birth through diagnosis and into early intervention requires ongoing diligence and a system bridging all medical and educational communities.

Sign language is an effective way for toddlers—especially those who are deaf or hard of hearing—to express themselves and connect with others. Whether your child is non-verbal, developing speech, or primarily communicates visually, sign language can help them share their needs, feelings, and ideas from an early age. To explore tools and strategies designed for toddlers and their families, see the EI Clearinghouse resource guides on Sign Language for Babies and Young Children and Deaf and Hard of Hearing Resources:

La lengua de señas es una forma efectiva para que los niños pequeños, especialmente aquellos que son sordos o tienen dificultades auditivas, se expresen y se conecten con los demás. Ya sea que su hijo no hable, esté desarrollando el habla o se comunique principalmente de forma visual, el lenguaje de señas puede ayudarle a compartir sus necesidades, emociones e ideas desde muy temprana edad. Para conocer herramientas y estrategias diseñadas para niños pequeños y sus familias, consulte las guías de recursos del Clearinghouse de Intervención Temprana sobre Lenguaje de Señas para Bebés y Niños Pequeños y Recursos para personas sordas y con problemas de audición:
