HLAA2020 Convention in New Orleans – CANCELLED
Presenting Sponsor
With the grave situation of the Coronavirus pandemic we have to cancel the HLAA2020 Convention. An email about the cancellation went to our HLAA community from Executive Director Barbara Kelley. Please read her message about the cancellation. We hope that all of those in our HLAA family stay well.
Thank You!
We want to thank everyone who registered for HLAA2020. We want to offer you the option to donate your registration to HLAA. If you would prefer a 100% refund we will honor that as well.
Experience HLAA! We plan to deliver some of the featured content from HLAA2020 online in June, such as the Research Symposium, and are looking into technology solutions and talking with our sponsors about how best to do this.
We appreciate your donations during this crisis. For so many people in so many ways your generous donations will help continue essential HLAA programs during this challenging time.
Refunds/Donations
If you would like a refund, please email Amanda Watson at convention@hearingloss.org and provide us your name, email, phone number and postal address. You can also call Amanda on her direct line: 240.324.6073. If we don’t hear from you by April 17, we will turn your registration fees into a tax-deductible donation and we will send you an acknowledgment for your tax records. HLAA is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization.
Some of you have generously offered to waive a refund of your paid registration fee as a way to support HLAA. Convention fees and sponsorships allow us to put on a fun and engaging event each year, they also fund staff time and convention programming.
