The Educational Resources for Children with Hearing Loss (ERCHL)

This committee is an advisory committee to the Bureau of Special Education, Pennsylvania Department of Education. Members are appointed by the Director of the Bureau of Special Education. Please see the ERCHL brochure for a description of responsibilities and a listing of current members.

ERCHL operates in two major ways:  

  1. It responds to requests from the Bureau of Special Education to advise on specific matters related to the education of students who are deaf or hard of hearing;
  2. It brings to the attention of the Bureau of Special Education problems or potential problems from the field.  

ERCHL has most recently been involved in the development of the The Pennsylvania Agenda for Students Who Are Deaf and Hard of Hearing -a roadmap to improving services to Deaf and Hard of Hearing children.  They have also recently proposed regulations to govern the employment of Educational Interpreters, among other projects.
