About
The center's audiology program identifies and treats children and adults with hearing problems and provides them with appropriate hearing aids and other assistive listening devices. This program targets low-income individuals who cannot pay for services. Hearing loss is a critical issue facing our community's aging population, especially those who are living in poverty, near poverty, or those who face the financial strain of multiple medical expenses on a fixed income. In 2018, 2,344 clients received audiology services. Of those, 55% were provided with financial assistance. 525 hearing aids were dispensed with 66% of them requiring financial assistance.
