Who We Are
Our Story
HLAA Rochester Chapter, Inc is a non-profit volunteer organization under the umbrella of the National Hearing Loss Association of America.
We’re a friendly welcoming group supporting people with hearing loss, in the upstate New York area.
Join us for meetings, social events, and information sharing. Together, we advocate for a better understanding of hearing loss and provide a welcoming space for everyone!
Membership is not required for meetings and most events but the financial support would certainly be appreciated. The cost at $10/yr is a bargain and includes a mailed edition of our wonderful Chapter Newsletter!
