<br></div><div>The DELV is being adapted to South African Black English, has been translated into Afrikaans and is used</div><div>with adjustments for other populations. The core phenomena are universal, but one does need to look</div>
<div>over the examples and see if they need to be adjusted for language or culture.</div><div> Barbara Pearson at UMass is the person who manages the materials. Others, like Frenette Southwood</div><div>and Ondene van Dulm might be available to advise you on how to do this adaptation. They are also developing</div>
<div>very useful intervention materials.</div><div> I would be happy to help if I can as well.</div><div><br></div><div>Tom Roeper</div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><div><div class="h5"><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">
