Alice Eriks-Brophy is an associate professor in the Department of Speech-Language Pathology at the University of Toronto, where she teaches courses in aural rehabilitation and articulation development and disorders. Her research examines the role of parental involvement in early intervention for children with hearing loss, along with outcomes of early identification and intervention programs for orally educated children with hearing loss. An ongoing research project examines communication outcomes for sixty preschool children enrolled in AVT programs in the Greater Toronto Area who represent five minority language groupings that include Mandarin, Cantonese, Arabic, Urdu and Somali. A recently completed project examined the use of videoconferencing in the provision of culturally appropriate S-LP assessments with twenty First Nations children in remote and isolated regions of northern Ontario. Prior to embarking on an academic career, Alice worked as an itinerant teacher of the deaf and heard of hearing for the Montreal Oral School for the Deaf. She was also an elementary classroom teacher on several First Nations reserves in northern and southern Québec.
