The Moog Center for Deaf Education was founded in 1996 by one of the pioneers of the oralism method, Jean Sachar Moog.

The Moog Center is an independent, not-for-profit school that provides education services to children — birth to early elementary years — with hearing loss and their families.

There are eight Certified Moog Programs that offer oral education for deaf and hard-of-hearing children and their families:[1]

  • Buffalo Hearing and Speech Center in Buffalo, New York
  • Child's Voice in the Chicago, Illinois area
  • Colegio Las Lomas Oral in Buenos Aires, Argentina
  • Desert Voices in Phoenix, Arizona
  • The Moog Center for Deaf Education in St. Louis, Missouri
  • Northern Voices in the Twin Cities, Minnesota
  • Ohio Valley Voices in Cincinnati, Ohio
  • Presbyterian Ear Institute Oral School in Albuquerque, New Mexico

    • The focus of the curriculum is accelerating development of spoken language and, when the children are ready, to help them learn the same subjects as their hearing age-mates so they can catch up and be full participants in the mainstream.
