National EHDI funding restructuring update 

Beginning April 1, 2024, MCHB decided to restructure how technical assistance would be provided to EHDI programs by funding an EHDI National Network consisting of the following three entities who will work together:

  1. The Implementation and Change Center (ICC) housed at Gallaudet University’s Beacon Center is now funded to support state EHDI programs.
  2. The Family Leadership in Language and Learning Center (FL3), housed at Hands & Voices, is funded to enhance family-to-family support, develop family leadership skills, and engage DHH adults in EHDI programs.
  3. The Provider Education Center (PEC), housed at American Academy of Pediatrics is funded to provide resources and training for health care and allied health professionals so they can interact more effectively with the EHDI programs.

Please refer to any of the three above websites or the NCHAM website to access nationally available resources

CIHAC Guidelines

The following guidelines were created by the Colorado Infant Hearing Advisory Committee (CIHAC), which advises the department on issues related to newborn hearing screening in the state of Colorado. These guidelines in no way reflect the views or opinions of CDPHE staff.
