Abstract	This document presents a description and evaluation of the Comprehensive Hearing Impaired Reception Program (CHIRP). This program was designed to improve effective communication skills for hearing handicapped students whose native language was not English, and whose language deficiencies prevented them from effective participation in the learning process. A total of 47 students, all of Hispanic background participated in the program. The program supplemented the regular services provided in resource rooms and in a work-study program for the hard of hearing in several schools. In the resource rooms, handicapped students received supportive services for part of the school day, and the remainder of their time was spent in regular classes. The program consisted of individual and small group language lessons conducted for at least 40 minutes daily. The evaluation included pre- and post testing with the newly prepared Rating Scale of Pupils' Ability to Speak English and the Rating Scale of Pupils' Ability to Speak Spanish tests. Although the results did not reveal significant changes, the program served a target population in need of its services. As an adjunct to the resource room program, the program appears limited to the extent to which it went beyond the scope of the services already provided. (Author/AM)
