Review for Hearing Loss Association of America, Rockville, MD, USA
After a lifetime of feeling alone with my progressive hearing loss, I discovered HLAA 10 years ago. Immediately after joining a local chapter, I ended up being elected to a leadership position and have been volunteering ever since; including for another chapter and our region’s annual Walk4Hearing awareness fundraiser.
Finding HLAA connected me to a community of others who share my experiences of living with hearing loss…we understand and support each other by sharing encouragement, resources, assistive technology recommendations, communication strategies and just by listening to each other’s stories. In fact, thanks to the people I’ve met here, I’m about to receive my first cochlear implant.
With HLAA, I no longer feel alone with hearing loss.
