What’s So Hard about Hearing Loss, Huh?

Please join Julie Olson, from Hearing Loss Association of America, on October 23rd at 6:30 pm as she good-humoredly offers valuable advice from her own experience as a person with hearing loss and from her involvement in HLAA for living and thriving with hearing loss. Nearly 20% of the population has some degree of hearing loss; while almost 100% cares about someone who has it. Yet, people hide it and deny they have it. The consequences of denial are serious as they tend to lead to social isolation, depression, and even cognitive decline. Share a light-hearted evening with us and gain insight into what can be most helpful in one’s journey to live well with hearing loss. HLAA is a consumer-based organization that does not sell or endorse products or providers. No registration necessary.

For more information, please contact the Neenah Public Library adult reference desk by phone: 920-886-6315 or e-mail: [email protected].
