Welcome to the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) Early Hearing Detection and Intervention (EHDI) Video Library, a resource for enhancing support for children who are Deaf or Hard of Hearing (D/HH) and their families. In this collection, learners will find a diverse range of video recordings and presentations aimed at providing valuable education and insights to pediatricians and other pediatric clinicians. While the primary audience for these resources is clinicians, content may also be relevant to other healthcare professionals and EHDI system partners. 

Each video includes recorded American Sign Language (ASL) interpretation to improve accessibility for individuals who are D/HH. 

The development of these resources was supported by a cooperative agreement funded by the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) as part of an award totaling $200,000 with 0% percentage financed with non-governmental sources. The contents are those of the author(s) and do not necessarily represent the official views of, nor an endorsement, by HRSA, HHS, or the U.S. Government.
