Hearing Loss Association of America-Chester County Chapter (HLAA-Chesco) is a chapter of the Hearing Loss Association of America (HLAA) based in Bethesda, Maryland. Their website is www.hearingloss.org.
Our primary purpose is to educate ourselves, our families, friends, coworkers, teachers, hearing health care providers, industry, government, and others about hearing loss.
HLAA provides adults and children with tools for self help; sensitizes the general population about the special needs of people who are hard of hearing; and promotes understanding of the nature, causes, complications, and remedies of hearing loss.
We provide information on many aspects of hearing loss, from technological and medical advances to coping and parenting strategies.
We want to help you become an informed consumer on what options are available to you to help you make the best decisions on how to deal with hearing loss.
HLAA believes people with hearing loss can help themselves and one another to participate fully and successfully in society. HLAA promotes self-confidence and empowers individuals with skills to improve their lives.
