Cultural diversity is based on the conclusion of developmental and ecological theories of child development prominent in the field of early childhood education.

The goals are to bridge the gap between research and practice in early intervention, and to explore how early intervention services can be delivered to deaf and hard of hearing children who are part of diverse families and communities.
