This is Better Speech and Hearing Month, and the West Seattle chapter of the Hearing Loss Association of America is reaching out to invite more people to participate. Here’s the announcement Kacy asked us to share:

Do you, or someone you know, avoid crowded situations because it’s so much work to follow the conversations? What about hearing the birds chirping? Or feel that people are mumbling?

Did you know that

* 1 out of 10 Americans has a hearing loss?
* 15% of baby-boomers have a hearing loss?
* the majority (65%) of people with a hearing loss are below retirement age?

Come to a meeting of the Hearing Loss Association of America, West Seattle chapter, and find out more!

Wednesday, the 20th of May, 1:30 to 2:30 p.m.

West Seattle Christian Church, 4400 42nd Ave SW (SE corner of 42nd and SW Genesee; map)
