March 2016 Newsletter

We are having a very important meeting this Saturday and hope many of you will join us. We’ll be looking at the state of our chapter… where we’ve been, where we’re at, and where we’re headed. We can’t do this without your input! This is YOUR chapter, so please bring your thoughts, suggestions and ideas to this lively, open discussion.

As always, there will be coffee and plenty of refreshments, and the meeting will be captioned and looped.

The New HLAA-LA Chapter Website has Launched!

***It was a long time coming but with the hard work and dedication of our Website Committee, we are proud to promote positive change with the release of the new website!

This chapter has a lot of passion and devotion to our HOH community so as the hearing needs and challenges continue to evolve, so too will this website. Ongoing new features and enhancements will be announced in the coming months so please continue to check in on a regular basis. And, we want to hear your ideas on how this website can better serve our chapter and HOH community, and be a great place for people to know that “we get it”.

Please use the Contact menu link to send us your comments and suggestions, plus anything that may not be working to your expectations.

Walk4Hearing – Coming in June!

Walk 4 Hearing

The HLAA Walk4Hearing began in 2006 with just 6 walks and a dream of raising awareness for the hearing loss community. Ten years later, 22 walks around the country have made HLAA’s Walk4Hearing one of the largest fundraising events for people with hearing loss. Besides funds, the walks bring much-needed visibility to an often invisible condition. Please join other Southern Californians as we walk for the common goal of raising funds and awareness to the hearing loss community. » Read more
