Half of Toronto Infant Hearing Program families of newly-identified babies with Permanent
Hearing Loss (PHL) are not being transitioned from TIHP to PDSB for school
readiness services. This is largely due to the inconsistent practice of
discussing and offering PDSB services with each family. The aim for this IDEAS team was; By June 30, 2019, the Toronto IHP
will increase the proportion of eligible clients successfully transitioning to
PDSB from the current 14% to 70%.
