The Treasure Coast Chapter of the Hearing Loss Association of   America is exciting and new!  Keep in mind in our growing area, more and more people of all ages need "hearing help".
 
Being a part of the Nation's Voice for People With Hearing Loss, our purpose is to assist through information, education, advocacy and support.               
                            Membership is not only for the hard of hearing and deaf, but also for those who live with, work and care for them also.                       
                            People with hearing loss wait an average of 7 years before seeking help - don't wait - get help now.

SEEKING SPONSORS:  The Chapter is sponsoring
exciting new Lip Reading classes to start in the fall.
We are seeking co-sponsors to help with costs and
also looking for location host. 

Lip Reading can be a fun activity for all ages and a skill that only gets better with practice and becomes useful for so many aspects of life.  Picture yourself being a nurse or Doctor, reading the lips of a patient who can mouth the words but due to a stroke or throat disorder, can’t talk; a worker, able to read the lips of others out of earshot, or a teacher able to read the lips of a student who is whispering and shouldn’t be talking; or even a parent, able to read the lips of others, child or not. 


Contact us if you can help!
