 "Wow! Howard University Speech and Hearing Clinic is a wonderful place with many resources for parents and children. We feel empowered as parents," said one TPEP couple. "The staff shared with us lots of practical, creative, and interesting things that we can use with our daughter and we can't wait to try some of what we learned at home. Thanks, HBP, for exposing us to this amazing place!"
