Hearing Loss—It Affects Your Life!

Have you denied your hearing loss for too long? Hearing loss affects one’s life and those of family and friends in a variety of unmerciful ways.

We will take the shared experiences of group members and learn ways to be pro-active rather than giving into feelings of loneliness and alienation.  Whether you have hearing loss or are close to someone who does, there are practical tools that will be shared to help individuals cope.
