The Hanen Centre is a not-for-profit organization committed to promoting the best possible language, social and literacy skills in young children. We believe that parents and caregivers have the biggest influence on children’s early language learning and that the best learning happens during the everyday interactions they have together. We created this channel as part of our efforts to share practical, research-based information with these important people in children’s lives so that they can nurture the early skills that make a life-long difference for all children.

We aim to educate and raise awareness of Hanen programs and their concepts. This channel is for parents, caregivers, speech language pathologists and other professionals working with young children.
