Presented by Marla Dougherty – NVRC Outreach Specialist
NVRC is the area’s leading non-profit for people with hearing loss. In this program you will learn resources available through NVRC, as well as Virginia’s Technology Assistance Program. Myths about hearing loss will be discussed, and participants will have an opportunity to learn about effective communication strategies, including Clear Speech, which is a simple method of speaking. Participants will also have a chance to learn what a high frequency hearing loss sounds like and take a listening “quiz”. This program is an excellent introduction to hearing loss and communication techniques.
