Programs and Services

Early Expressions Services
Early Expressions is a system of partner agencies that provides speech and language services to preschool children living in the KFL&A area. Early Expressions will accept referrals for children not yet eligible for senior kindergarten and book you an appointment for your child's initial assessment.

Infant Hearing Program
This program is designed to identify babies who are born deaf or hard of hearing, or are at risk for developing hearing loss in early childhood and provide them and their families with the support and services they need. Parents, with infants who missed hearing screening in the hospital, can call the Infant Hearing Program to make a screening appointment
