The
Hearing Loss Association of America advocates equal access
and political empowerment for the 31 million people with hearing
loss in America. We work with industry and government to expand
access to mainstream and assistive technologies, enforce existing
disability laws, and introduce new legislation, regulations
and standards to impact the lives of people with hearing loss.
HLAA promotes self-advocacy for its constituents to ensure
equal opportunity in the areas of telecommunications, employment,
health care, education and community life.
