Abstract
<p>Research and evaluation have been responsible for not only identifying revolutionary methods of study, but also contributing to progressive changes within these same methods. Continued studies in therapeutic methods that have been used with deaf and hard of hearing populations have shown significant barriers that exists between the world of the hearing and the world of the deaf. We'll examine how the application Family Preservation/ Multisystemic Therapy (FP/MST) in an intensive home-based format could not only bridge significant shortfalls in service deliveries, but also potentially enhance opportunities for success for persons who are deaf or hard of hearing.</p>
