The Bamford-Lahey Children's Foundation has recently awarded funding for two research grants through its Grant Program.  One grant, Effects of stimulating phoneme awareness on other linguistic skills in preschoolers with speech and language impairment, was awarded to Anne Tyler of the University of Nevada School of Medicine and Gail Gillon from the University of Canterbury, NZ.  The second grant, Determining the impact of natural development and summer vacation on the speech and language skills of school-aged children with communication disorders was awarded to Robert Mullen and Tracy Schooling of The American Speech-Language-Hearing Association.  Abstracts of each can be found on our website http://bamford-lahey.org/fundedinprogress.html.   The next deadline for receipt of completed applications is November 1st.  See http://bamford-lahey.org/guidelines.html for details.

Recently additional lists of references were posted on the website http://bamford-lahey.org/bibliographies.html.  These references are not direct evaluations of intervention techniques but are related to language intervention.  They are in pdf format at the bottom of the web page listed above.
