My Nonprofit Reviews

Review for Hearing Loss Association of America, Rockville, MD, USA
I found HLAA organization several years ago. I didn’t feel like I was getting enough information from my
audiologist and started doing my own research. I have found so much support from the articles,
webinars and zoom meetings. I told my audiologist about the organization and she was not familiar
with HLAA. I have recently had a BoneBridge implant, and I found this information through HLAA and was able to research it further. Many things I was experiencing with hearing loss left me feeling alone
and not able to communicate to others my challenges. Many of the articles validated what I was going through and helped me to communicate it with my spouse and people near to me.
HLAA has helped me find organizations to join, hearing aid help and information and professional
advise. A cochlear implant may be in my future, and I feel confident that I will have a support group
throughout my journey. I have bilateral hearing loss so my journey will be everlasting.
