CHAPTER 1379
HOUSE BILL 1627
AN ACT TO APPROPRIATE FUNDS FOR OPERATING ASSISTANCE TO THE CUED SPEECH CENTER, INC.
Whereas, the Cued Speech Center is able to provide services to local school systems assisting in the educational process; and
Whereas, cued speech is an aid to lipreading and learning to use spoken language and allows deaf persons to better understand ordinary speech and learn to speak; and

The General Assembly of North Carolina enacts:
Section 1. There is appropriated from the General Fund to the Department of Human Resources for fiscal year 1982-83 the sum of twenty-five thousand dollars ($25,000) to provide a grant for operating expenses of the Cued Speech Center, Inc.
