The Hands & Voices Family Leadership in Language and Learning (FL3) Center is excited to share our newest guidebook on Developmental Milestones. This information was developed and compiled by the FL3 Scientific Language and Literacy Advisory Board over the last year. The goal is to provide information for parents and caregivers raising children who are D/HH and D/HH Plus on how to:

  • Understand the importance of developmental milestone checklists.
  • Utilize these types checklists, created for typical development, in context of your own child’s development.
  • Employ these checklists for beginning and deepening conversations with your Early Intervention providers.

As well, included is a sampling of accessible, web-based checklists and resources which were chosen and vetted by the FL3 Language and Literacy Advisory Board, to do just that, with a special focus on language, literacy and social emotional development for children birth to three years of age. Find this under the Language/Literacy/Social and Emotional Development heading, as well as many other resources in the Hands & Voices FL3 Center Resource Toolbox.
