Over the
past several years, the GOHF has been reaching out to
help people with severe to profound hearing loss
learn about and get access to the cochlear implant
technology. Our focus has been events for people with
hearing loss such as conferences held by the Association
of Late-Deafened Adults (ALDA) in Chicago, Seattle, and
Colorado Springs; the Hearing Loss Association of
America (HLAA) in Reno, the AG Bell Association for the
Deaf and Hard of Hearing in Milwaukee and The Audiology
Association of America in Denver. In addition we have
had a steady presence in events in the greater New
England area, some of which are featured below.
