We may be small, but we are mighty! In our efforts to support people living with hearing loss, HLAA-WA is making huge strides locally and is being recognized nationally.

Local Impact

We raised our voices and successfully advocated for insurance coverage of hearing aids. We launched our new Empowerment Series to discuss key issues and opportunities. We gathered together for our community picnic and meet each month online and in person for peer support meetings. And we continue to reach out to our community and to educate community leaders about the needs of people with hearing loss.

National Recognition

In response to these efforts, we are excited to share that HLAA-WA members are receiving 2023 national HLAA awards.

• Spirt of HLAA Award to Glenda Philio, HLAA-WA Board Member
• Social Media Award to JoAnne Dyer, HLAA-WA Communications Manager
• Get In the Hearing Loop Award to Cheri Perazzoli, HLAA-WA President
• Our new website is also being recognized as Best Chapter or State Association Website

Everything we do, we do for you. Please GiveBIG to support our efforts. Thank you.
