The Walk4Hearing was created in 2006 by the Hearing Loss Association of America (HLAA) to raise awareness about hearing loss as a public health concern and to eradicate the stigma associated with it. Hundreds of walkers participate so that people of all ages, from babies to seniors, can get the programs, support and services they need to meet the challenges of hearing loss. Individual walkers and teams include families, friends, co-workers, educators, physicians, audiologists, students, and business leaders.
