This issue contains two articles. First, authors describe a procedure for completing and applying electrically evoked stapedial reflex threshold (ESRT) measures, objective measures that correlates to upper comfort/stimulation (C/M) levels, to cochlear implant programing. The authors explain evidence, research, set-up, equipment, and procedural practices for ESRTs. Next, authors focus on speech, language, and hearing professionals who provide informational counseling for individuals with hearing loss to facilitate success in a variety of settings. The focus and content of the information changes throughout the life of the individual from initial diagnosis through young adulthood. These shifts, guided by speech-language pathologists in collaboration with professionals from multiple disciplines who work with this population, can help to maximize a successful life trajectory.

This part of Perspectives covers a diverse range of topics including a review of auditory verbal therapy, reducing bullying for children who are D/HH, the current state of audiology services for central auditory processing, and, finally, guiding parents in managing their child's behavior in order to increase hearing aid use. The articles provide current practical information for clinicians who serve children who are deaf and hard of hearing, including audiologists, early interventionists, speech-language pathologists, and teachers.
