We are the largest Hearing Loss Association of America (HLAA) chapter serving South/Central Palm Beach County.
We provide person-to-person information from a variety of sources how to survive day-by-day in a world where others hear,
and we do not.
We are a non-profit; non-sectarian organization whose primary objective is to educate as many people suffering from
loss of hearing, no matter how slight, that there is help; that there are ways to improve what and how they hear,
thereby improving their quality of life. To that end, we host monthly meetings, conduct public seminars, and publish
a monthly newsletter.
Meetings and seminars are open to the public. In addition, we are happy to provide these seminars as programs for
Special Interest Group meetings, Gated Community Association meetings, and more. For information,
contact Oscar Segal, 561-499-9873.
We have created PowerPoint presentations on the following important and timely subjects:
At monthly meetings, we provide programs that illustrate
the advances available from current medical and audiological
communities, as well as the many assistive hearing devices to improve
hearing in a variety of difficult-to-hear situations.
We are the single source in our demographic area for ALL the information
related to hearing loss and how to combat it.
We have initiated programs to educate law enforcement,
emergency responders and hospitals how to communicate with deaf and
hard of hearing people.
We welcome anyone who has a hearing problem or has a spouse,
relative or friend who suffers hearing impairment.
We meet the third Friday of each month, September through May, 10 am to noon,
at the South County Civic Center, 16700 Jog Road, in Delray Beach.
