Desert Voices is a Phoenix-based listening and spoken language program that provides early intervention and preschool services for children who are deaf or hard of hearing, serving infants through roughly age five or six.
Desert Voices provides early intervention and preschool education focused on listening and spoken language for children who are deaf or hard of hearing. Services are offered for very young infants through children around kindergarten age, and families can schedule tours and engage with staff to learn about available supports.
The program uses a listening-and-spoken-language model delivered by a team of professionals, including Teachers of the Deaf and speech-language clinicians. Instruction includes individual sessions and classroom-based instruction, and families receive coaching and resources to support their child's oral language and early literacy development.
The organization operates on-site pediatric audiology services that are open to both enrolled students and the wider community. Offerings include newborn hearing evaluations, comprehensive pediatric hearing testing, routine device programming and troubleshooting, and management of hearing devices and assistive technologies. Desert Voices also administers a charitable hearing-assistance program (Hear for Kids) that distributes devices and related services to financially eligible children within Maricopa County.
