Establishes programs to address needs of toddlers and certain children who are deaf or hard of hearing.

This bill establishes mandatory support programs for toddlers and children aged 3-5 who are deaf or hard of hearing and receiving early intervention services. It requires two annual meetings per year between the child, parent/guardian, and a language team (including a pediatric audiologist, teacher of the deaf, deaf mentor, and speech pathologist) until language development benchmarks are met. Parents/guardians must be paired with a trained deaf mentor who shares lived experience and actively supports language development. Children are automatically enrolled in these services unless parents decline, with programs transitioning from the Department of Health (under age 3) to the Department of Education (ages 3-5) until kindergarten entry.
