Auditory Processing Disorder: Setting Up Your Child for Success”
Jun 4 @ 10:00 am – 11:30 am

“AUDITORY PROCESSING DISORDER: SETTING UP YOUR CHILD FOR SUCCESS”

Auditory processing is simply what the brain does with the information it hears. It is a perceptual deficit that can impact listening, comprehension, literacy, and learning. The talk will go over the definition of auditory processing, behaviors and characteristics of a disorder, and how it is assessed. It will also focus on remediation approaches for home and school, including auditory training, accommodations, and compensatory strategies.

Dr. Christine Russo-Mayer, a clinical and educational audiologist, will be our speaker. Spanish and Mandarin translation will be provided.
