Dr.<br \/>\nScoggins will be speaking about early hearing detection and<br \/>\nintervention (EHDI) systems and how the deaf community can become<br \/>\ninvolved in these systems and support deaf children and their<br \/>\nfamilies. \u201cI look forward to the first DBC conference. DBC<br \/>\nsupporters are passionate about American Sign Language and making sure<br \/>\nthat deaf babies have access to full language from birth\u201d said Dr.<br \/>\nScoggins.<\/p>\n<p>NAD Chief Executive Officer Nancy J. Bloch added, \u201cThe NAD has been<br \/>\ninvolved in EHDI activities for many years and we have information<br \/>\nabout EHDI on our website. We support the early identification of deaf<br \/>\nand hard of hearing children and early access to both American Sign<br \/>\nLanguage and English. It is only through early access to language and<br \/>\ncommunication that deaf children can reach their full potential.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>About the NAD<\/p>\n<p>The National Association of the Deaf (NAD) was established in 1880 by<br \/>\ndeaf leaders who believed in the right of the American deaf community<br \/>\nto use sign language, to congregate on issues important to them, and<br \/>\nto have its interests represented at the national level. These beliefs<br \/>\nremain true to this day, with American Sign Language as a core value.<br \/>\nAs a nonprofit federation, the mission of the NAD is to preserve,<br \/>\nprotect, and promote the civil, human, and linguistic rights of deaf<br \/>\nAmericans. The advocacy scope of the NAD is broad, covering the<br \/>\nbreadth of a lifetime and impacting future generations in the areas of<br \/>\nearly intervention, education, employment, health care, technology,<br \/>\ntelecommunications, youth leadership, and more.
