The Minnesota Commission of the Deaf, DeafBlind and Hard of Hearing (MNCDHH) and the Hearing Loss Association of America, Twin Cities Chapter (HLAA-TC) are hosting a town hall meeting centering on people with hearing loss who use speaking and listening to communicate. We invite all members of the hearing loss community, as well as professionals and families, are welcome to attend.

The main goal of the town hall is to gather suggestions from the public on what the Commission and HLAA-TC should focus on while working to advance the lives of Minnesotans who have hearing loss. Learn more here: http://mn.gov/deaf-commission/news/index.jsp?id=1063-565039
