Press Releases:
Did you know that hearing loss is one of the most common birth defects? In the state of Indiana, a baby is diagnosed with hearing loss every 48 hours.
Newborns can be fitted with hearing aids, and children as young as one may receive a cochlear implant. With today’s technology, most deaf children can learn to listen and speak.
We know that if deaf babies receive appropriate early intervention by six months of age, they have an excellent chance of achieving age-appropriate language skills by the time they enter mainstream kindergarten.

HEAR THE DIFFERENCE.
See and hear the outcomes of early identification, intervention and oral deaf education for pediatric hearing loss.
