Krista Dillman to Everyone: Can you please send us an example like this one we are seeing on the screen?

Alex Driver to Everyone: Hey Rachel! Here is my question for you:  I use the ETTDB for all of my evals - And since we use that quite a bit, would this information actually be ok to be put into the communication assessment piece of the DB Evaluation ?  Does that make sense?

Kaycee Bennett to Everyone: We can't share these, but would happy to support anyone in turning the results into a report. Feel free to reach out!

Krista Dillman to Everyone: Do you have a link to the ETTDB?

Alex Driver to Everyone: Ok thats what I thought! I just didn't want to do double the work for the parents to have to read :)

Kaycee Bennett to Everyone: The new ETTDB comes out in June! :)

Kaycee Bennett to Everyone: It will be available at tsbvi.edu/store once it's out!
