The Moog Center for Deaf Education is committed to teaching children who are deaf or hard of hearing to talk in partnership with their families and other professionals. As a part of this commitment, the Moog Center regularly engages in applied research to inform best practices, improve outcomes, educate others, and continuously contribute to the field of listening and spoken language intervention.
