My Bio:
Dr. K. Todd Houston is an Assistant Professor of Speech-Language Pathology in the Department of Communicative Disorders and Deaf Education at Utah State University where he continues to develop auditory-based intervention and educational opportunities for children with hearing loss who are acquiring spoken language. He also serves as Director of the Graduate Studies Program in Auditory Learning and Spoken Language, an innovative personnel preparation program for graduate students in Speech-Language Pathology, Audiology, and Early Childhood Special Education/Deaf Education. Prior to joining the faculty at Utah State University, Dr. Houston was the Executive Director and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the Alexander Graham Bell Association for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing (AG Bell), located in Washington, DC.
What I do best:
I enjoy speaking about human possibility. When we put that into the context of children with hearing loss, many today are learning to use hearing aids and/or cochlear implants to achieve language outcomes that are on par with their hearing peers.

Some of my recent presentations have been:

"The AUDacity of Listening: New Opportunities for Language & Learning for Young Children with Hearing Loss"

"Living, Loving and Learning: Strategies for Parents & Caregivers"

"Creating Communication & Educational Success for Children with Hearing Loss in the 21st Century"

As well, because of my non-profit work, I like to help organizations reach their potential by bringing a focus to their mission, creating opportunities for social entrepreneurship, and creating a shared vision for success.

I've done consulting, especially in the areas of:

Fundraising
Board & Staff Relations
Visioning & Mission Clarity

I'm continuing to conduct workshops, keynote addresses, and consulting on issues related to childhood deafness and/or non-profit governance in the United States and abroad.
I charge a fee of:
$1500-$5K
Some notes on how I charge for my services:
My fees are based on the size of the organization and/or event at which I'm speaking.

Yes, it did; what a memory you have, Todd! Textiles are pretty much gone in this area. A lot of the old mills are being turned into condos and apartments; very classy!

best,
Gail

Hi Todd! I'm happy to have you as a friend.

I see several common threads in our backgrounds.

I worked for an attorney who had a deaf son and so was very connected to the School for the Deaf in Indianapolis, IN. He did some pro bono work for the deaf community. Later, I worked for a brief time in the Speach Lab in the Psychology Dept at Indiana University, Bloomington, IN. You may be familiar with the work of the director, David Pisoni.
