Auditory Verbal Graduate Earned the Rank of Eagle Scout

Mat, may the high goals and ideals 

which led to this special honor 

continue to inspire you in years ahead.

Help me congratulations Mat, one of my AV graduates who earned the rank of Eagle Scout this week. He began AV therapy at about 8 months old and received services through middle school. Today, he is a junior in high school, a high achiever, a leader and a spoken language superstar. Mat is looking at universities with the inspiration to become a research audiologist.

Auditory Verbal therapy made it possible for Mat to learn to listen, talk with clear and natural speech, develop spoken language, excellent literacy, and academic skills. He hears with a cochlear implant.

Mat and his Mom. - His biggest advocate and teacher

Eagle Scout is the highest achievement or rank attainable in the Boy Scouts of America. 

After 16 years we are still great friends!

Mat attended the 2016 A.G. Bell's LOFT (Leadership Opportunities for Teens) program

 this past summer in Denver.
