    Founded in 1979, Hearing Loss Association (HLAA) is a national, non-profit, non-sectarian, educational organization devoted to the welfare and interests of those who cannot hear well and who are committed to participating in the hearing world.

    We are a volunteer organization of people who are hard of hearing which has become an international organization with over 270 chapters and groups throughout the United States and members in many other English speaking countries.

    We and our members are catalysts who make mainstream society more accessible to people who are hard of hearing, accomplishing this through education, advocacy, and self help.

    We believe that little progress can be made until those who can hear well and those with a hearing loss can better understand the nature, causes, complications, and steps that can be taken to improve communication.

    National membership brings:

    • A bi-monthly journal, Hearing Loss, containing the latest information on technology, legislation and coping with hearing loss
    • Access to the information and resource center
    • Active advocacy and representation in Congress
    • Annual conventions held in different locations, reaching out to all

    To become a member please go to the Hearling Loss Association website.
