Exit is where you capture the evidence of impact and set a family up for what comes next. Use this checklist when a Deaf or hard of hearing child leaves a birth-to-three program. It covers exit logistics, language and development at exit, a clean handoff to the receiving team or school, technology status, and whether the family is connected to the Deaf community and ASL instruction. Staff closest to the family gather the details, and directors make sure the data reaches program tracking. Use it to close each record well and feed your program's outcomes and grant reporting.
