Speech-Language Pathologist

The Moog Center for Deaf Education is an independent, not-for-profit, listening and spoken language program that provides therapeutic, educational, and audiologic services to children who are deaf or hard of hearing from birth to early elementary years and their families. The goal at the Moog Center is to make it possible for children who are deaf or hard of hearing to learn to listen and talk well enough to participate academically and socially with their peers who have typical hearing. When children leave the Moog Center, they are prepared to transition to their local schools and enjoy their education alongside their classmates. The Moog Center lays the groundwork for children to achieve successful and fulfilling lives. At the Moog Center for Deaf Education, we teach deaf children to talk. And we teach others how to do it, too.
