My Nonprofit Reviews

The Hearing Loss Association of America is governed by a sophisticated Board of Trustees, passionate about helping those with hearing loss. Board governance is is effected by an outstanding administrative staff with years of experience in creating effective programmatic activity that reaches out to a well developed state and local chapter structure, its membership, and the millions upon millions of other Americans with hearing loss. That programmatic activity can extend from individual counseling on hearing loss, raising public awareness on how to deal with and treat hearing loss, and enhancing governmental response to the crisis of untreated hearing loss. It is the nation's primary advocacy organization for those with hearing loss.

The HLAA strives to improve the lives of those with hearing loss through outstanding programs. Those programs are designed to educate on the biological and psychological aspects of hearing loss and appropriate paths to follow to restore communicability in those experiencing this difficulty, to educate on the availability of modern hearing assistive technology, to provide advocacy in the public sphere for those with hearing loss, and to provide outreach via a fully developed and vibrant network of national chapters where those with hearing loss can interact and learn from each other.
